      Residents of the Nizhny Novgorod region in 2025 most often chose Chihuahuas among dogs and Scottish Straights among cats when buying pets. This was reported to the Zhivem v Nizhnem portal by the press service of the online classifieds platform.

      Among cats, leaders by number of sales were Scottish Straights — they accounted for 13% of all cats sold. In second place were Maine Coons with an 11% share, and the top three were rounded out by British Longhairs (5%). Bengal and Oriental breeds also remain in demand (4% each).

      It is separately noted that interest in Oriental cats has grown — their sales more than doubled over the past two years.
