The Chartreux makes an excellent family cat for the steady, quiet family with older children who know how to respect a cat’s space and need for uninterrupted naps. They are good travellers and may suit those who holiday at second homes or pet friendly cottages, which many cats would not tolerate. They are also fine with being left home alone whilst owners work each day.
The Chartreux is also suitable to live with cat-friendly dogs, due to their amiable disposition. Introduce pets slowly and in controlled circumstances to ensure positive interactions.
