Bon à savoir

  • Appears in Norse myth, drawing the goddess Freyja's chariot.
  • The double coat sheds heavily in spring, almost changing the cat's shape.
  • A strong climber with unusually powerful claws.

À qui ça convient

Families with space, and owners happy to groom hard during the spring moult.

Entretien

Comb twice a week, daily in spring. Tall cat trees are close to a requirement.

Histoire de la race

The skogkatt appears in Norse legend and lived on Norwegian farms for centuries. Crossbreeding with domestic cats nearly absorbed it by the 1930s; a preservation programme begun before the war and resumed after it saved the type, and King Olav V named it the national cat.
