» Russian blue cat
Russian blue souls have a reputation of being shy and socially selective, coming across as withdrawn to those who don’t know them intimately. They are slow to open up and are cautious around others; their natural anxiety doesn’t make them inclined to go out and make new friends. However when they are won over, they are loyal and affectionate, the sort of individuals who remind others how much they love them and will happily put others’ feelings before their own. Their playful side comes out to their loved ones, and those who know a Russian blue well knows they are friendly and inquisitive, always wanting to keep an eye on everything. These sorts of people should count themselves fortunate, as Russian blues still deeply value their alone time and normally enjoy engaging in solitary hobbies. Their sense of perfectionism and organization makes it difficult for them to cooperative with others, no matter how empathetic they are — when it comes to doing something right, a Russian blue soul would prefer to do it themselves, and would rather scrap a project outright than do it wrong. While they have their pride, they’re quiet about it, truly gentle souls who avoid conflict. On the surface a Russian blue is shy and guarded, though beneath lies a loving and inquisitive personality only a few ever get to see. [ x ]
