Aegean cat · natural population — size comparison — facts and sources

The Aegean cat usually has a strong, agile body and white hair with coloured patches, including black, blue or red. Individuals vary because the name covers a natural population rather than a uniformly selected breed with a closed pedigree register.

These cats are associated with Greek islands, particularly the Cyclades. Communities separated by sea favoured local characteristics, while nearby human settlements shaped daily surroundings. “Aegean” therefore chiefly describes geographical origin. Tameness and relationships with people depend on the individual cat’s history, particularly whether it grew up with people or lived freely.
