These are all generally skinnier and more inquisitive and active cats. At the other end of the scale the more docile cats such as the Persian are claimed to be less intelligent probably because in being docile they learn less through experience.

I can personally vouch for the Sphynx cat's intelligence. And the Pesian is known as a piece a furniture and is probably the most suited to full-time indoor living. 2 |. @; q& c& Q" n/ e' d& V) ^. w, i( X b" q5 I5 N% t9 d* C
