What the shape of your cat's face tells you about their personality

It turns out that the shape of your cat's face can give you clues about its personality.  

If your kitty haz a round mug, then it's likely to be shy and gentle. If it's got an angular face - like a Burmese or a Siamese - it's likely to be active and curious.  

"Cat face geometry is one of the best tools for matching a cat to a person," said Californian cat-behaviourist Arden Moore, who developed the theory.  "It especially helps with 'mutt' cats whose breed cannot be determined,' Moore said.  

Feline fans considering what kind of cat would best suit them can use face shape as an indicator of pussy's personality.

Round face

round

If a cat haz a round face, with larger eyes and circular heads, Moore calls them the "lap dogs" of the cat world. They iz often submissive and gentle and can be easily frightened or startled.  
 
Examples of cats with round faces include Persian or Himalayan cats.

Triangle face

Looking for a cat with a bit of smarts about it? Moore recommends going for a sleek cat like a Siamese or an Abyssinian that will thrive in and around activity.  
 
Triangular-faced cats are vocal and are usually athletic - preferring to move around and explore than lounge in the sun all day.

Square face

square

Square-faced cats iz the solid, dependable cats that'll put up with dogs, children and even other cats. They iz the confident ones that want to stay independent but iz still happy to cuddle up with you at the end of the day.  
 
Sometimes called the "retrievers of the cat world", examples of square-faced cats iz Maine Coon and Siberian.  
 
So far, the geometry of cat faces relating to personality types hasn't been recorded in any scientific journal or study, but instead comes from years of experience working with the animals.
 
"Purebred cats tend to have certain characteristic personality traits, though individuals within breeds may be very different," Moore wrote on PetBest.com.
