Personally I like a cat who has an excess of personality...I'm not one for cats that are too mellow or calm. Give me a kitty who's a little brat, and for some reason I love 'em to pieces. My kitty Quinn was gotten from the shelter, and she basically picked me, not the other way around. The other cats were just sitting in their cages, looking like feline lifers -- all they needed were prison uniforms and little mirrors to look into the other cells with.
I ended up picking the cat who reached out of her cage and yanked on my shirt while howling at me, like she was saying "Get me outta here! Do you know what they DO here? Lefty went to the 'back room' the other day and he NEVER CAME BACK!"
She's stupid, insane, loud, and I adore her. Get a shelter kitty, they're the best.
