So what about cats? Which breed of cat comes closest to this golden number? There are three to share the title of most beautiful cat in the world: the Norwegian (1.65), the Russian Blue (1.65) and the Manx (1.59).
Next are the Ragamuffin (1.67), the Siberian (1.55), the American Curl (1.56), the Selkirk Rex (1.69), the Siamese (1.55), the Maine Coon (1.71) and the Egyptian Mau (1.72).
