Beyond the ordinary
Minuet cats are special because they feel like living porcelain dolls — a perfect blend of elegance, sweetness, and playfulness. They combine the refined beauty of the Persian with the curious, confident nature of the Munchkin, resulting in a breed that’s both graceful and delightfully down-to-earth.
Their short legs give them a charming, almost storybook appearance, yet they move with surprising agility and confidence. What truly sets them apart, though, is their personality: Minuets are affectionate without being clingy, intelligent without being demanding, and endlessly social — they love people, other pets, and any cozy lap within reach.
It’s that mix of beauty, balance, and gentle temperament that makes a Minuet more than just a pet — they feel like a little piece of magic that just happens to purr.
Is a cobweb kiss minuet right for you?
Minuets are ideal for those who value calm, loving companionship and enjoy creating a peaceful home. They thrive in environments where they can be part of daily life — whether curling up beside you during quiet evenings or following you from room to room with curious affection.
They do best with owners who can offer gentle handling, consistent attention, and time for play each day. While they adore cuddles and company, they also appreciate routine and calm energy. Minuets aren’t typically jumpers or high-climbers, so homes without excessive stairs or tall obstacles are perfect.
Because of their Persian lineage, they benefit from regular grooming and a bit of pampering — something many owners come to love as part of their bonding time.
Families with children, retirees, or anyone seeking a steady, affectionate presence will find a Minuet to be a devoted friend. They’re adaptable, social, and endlessly charming — a graceful fit for almost any loving home.
More than just a pretty face
At Cobweb Kiss Cattery, our kittens are cherished for far more than their enchanting looks — it’s their hearts and health that truly define them.
Personality:
Cobweb Kiss Minuets are gentle souls with bright, curious minds. They bond deeply with their humans and thrive on companionship, often following you from room to room just to be near. They’re affectionate without being demanding — content to cuddle, watch you work, or nap quietly at your side. Their temperament is calm, friendly, and adaptable, making them a joy for families, singles, and seniors alike.
They’re playful in a sweet, understated way — they’ll chase a feather toy or bat at a ribbon, but they’re just as happy to curl up and observe the world around them. Each kitten is raised underfoot with daily love and socialization, so they grow into confident, well-mannered companions.
Health:
We take pride in breeding for health and longevity. Every Cobweb Kiss kitten comes from carefully selected, genetically screened lines to ensure the best possible start. Minuets generally enjoy robust health when properly cared for, though like all breeds, they have a few needs to be aware of.
Because of their Persian ancestry, regular grooming helps keep their coats soft and tangle-free, and routine eye care can help prevent minor tear staining. Their short legs don’t limit them — they run, climb, and play with ease — but we encourage gentle play and avoiding excessive jumps from tall surfaces.
Each kitten leaves our cattery fully vetted, vaccinated, and accompanied by a health guarantee, so families can welcome their new companion with confidence and peace of mind.

Understanding the Minuet Temperament
The Minuet (also known as the Napoleon) is a hybrid breed that combines the Persian Group’s gentle, people-oriented disposition with the Munchkin’s playful and inquisitive nature. This blend creates a temperament that is both affectionate and adaptable — a hallmark of the breed.
Social Behavior:
Minuets are known for their strong attachment to humans. Studies on companion cat behavior show that breeds with Persian ancestry tend to form secure social bonds and prefer consistent companionship over independence. The Minuet reflects this pattern: they seek closeness, often following their owners and resting nearby, which indicates a high level of social affiliation.
Activity Level:
While the Munchkin lineage contributes curiosity and playfulness, the Persian influence tempers this with calmness. As a result, Minuets display moderate activity levels — playful in short bursts, then content to rest. Their shorter legs don’t impair mobility but can limit vertical climbing, leading them to favor ground-level play and cozy lounging over high perches.
Emotional Regulation:
Minuets generally have stable temperaments. They adapt well to changes in routine if introduced gradually, and they respond best to gentle, consistent handling. They are not prone to aggressive or anxious behaviors when socialized properly from kittenhood. This stability makes them excellent companions for families, seniors, and multi-pet households.
Cognitive Traits:
Minuets show above-average social intelligence for a hybrid breed. They’re observant, responsive to human tone and emotion, and learn routines quickly. Their intelligence expresses itself subtly — they’re problem-solvers in quiet, thoughtful ways rather than high-energy explorers.
Life expectancy: 15 + years depending on many factors including environment and nutrition.
