Of course there's a National Kitten Day to celebrate the absolute joy feline friends can bring into your life - and they're so adorable to look at!

Some are mischievous, others are clumsy, and most are playful – especially when they're little darlings. Whichever cat your kitty grows into, they are sure to steal a place in your heart. 

Any pet owner is sure to create a special bond with their cat, especially when they can spend nearly two decades with you; as special as people, each cat has their own little personality. 

Could breed influence the way your kitten behaves? According to Feliway UK, it sure can – although the way they are brought up is also a factor. 

So whether you're considering getting a kitten, or just want to admire the cuteness, here are six cat breeds that are totally lovable.

Considered to be an adventurous breed, Ragdolls have lots of energy and are curious kitties that love to know what is going on around them. Be prepared to factor in a lot of play time.

Siamese kittens are super affectionate, but don't be surprised if they become more vocal when you're not around; these little darlings don't like being left alone, which is why it's best if they have a brother or sister.

Persians can be docile kittens, who will go wherever you may want to take them – as long as they trust you. Rather gentle-hearted, these kittens may shy away from strangers.
