If you want personality get a Bengal.
We have a Silver spotted bengal and she is awesome.
I took that picture showing the hardwood I just put in, but she is licking her paw.
We also have a marble seal point bengal and a siamese ragdoll.
the siamese ragdoll you can do anything to and will still purr and come back to you.
if your mean to one of the bengals they will let you know they dont like it.
