Personality
The Havana Brown is a graceful, affectionate and highly intelligent cat, with a big personality in a mid-sized package. It is similar in temperament to the Siamese, although it is less vocal and has a softer (and what many consider to be a more pleasing) voice. These are sociable, adaptable, friendly cats that crave human companionship and do not thrive when left unattended for long periods of time. However, they are not pushy or overly demanding of attention.
Activity Level
Havana Browns are playful, lively and full of fun. They are exceptionally agile, acrobatic and fleet on their feet and tend to like high places. Owners of this breed commonly find their cats on the top of the refrigerator or curled up on a high bookshelf or cabinet.
Behavioral Traits
Havana Browns have a special talent for using their front paws in a number of unique ways. They like to pick things up. After holding and examining whatever object has become the focus of its attention, the Havana will toss the item into the air and then chase after it with a burst of speed and an endearingly gleeful expression. These cats use their paws to communicate with their owners and express affection through touch. They often reach out with their paws to get the attention of passersby, much like some dogs do. Havana Browns are dog-like in other ways, as well. For example, they commonly race to the front door to greet their owners or other visitors upon their arrival, which is not typical cat behavior.
