they are great around kids.. They are like dogs and very playful... Most people would say F1-F3 would be skeptical around kids, especially one just because of the percent wild in them.. I highly recommend these cats. And yes I believe have mated the two hybrid cats.
Both our cats have incredible knuckles and claws, razor sharp.. They make me bleed all the time (i play rough with them) and watching them play is sometimes scary on how rough they get... Domestic cats sometimes cannot handle their high energy and style of playing.
