If you understand them. They are actually more like cats in personality, and they need some help adjusting to domestic life. But its SO worth it. They are usually couch potatoes, except for short bursts of energy. So beautiful, so elegant, so loving, and so darn smart.

I've had three of them in my life, and so wish I could take some now.
