21 Photos Of Norwegian Forest Cats That Prove They Are Too Majestic

There's something very Nordic about the Norwegian forest cat – with its shaggy fur coat it looks like a marauding Viking, come to steal your heart! In fact, it's believed that the Norwegian forest cat – or 'Wegie' – may even have travelled with the Vikings on their longboats to keep rodents under control. Despite their wild history, Norwegian forest cats have very sweet, gentle natures to go with their incredible good looks, and make an excellent addition to any family.
