Generally yes. They are gentle, sociable and usually get on well with children, cats and dogs when introduced calmly.
They shed lightly to moderately thanks to the short, fine coat. A weekly brush is usually enough.
They are fairly quiet compared with Burmese, with a soft voice they use to ask for attention or food. Individuals vary.
