Obviously, we can ask our mirror which is the most beautiful because beauty remains very subjective and relative. So what are the criteria by which we count beauty? What if we could actually measure it mathematically?

The most beautiful cat in the world…

Science naturally took this issue into account when creating the so-called golden ratio. It is a mathematical formula that is a ratio, tentatively defined in geometry as the unique ratio between two lengths. This means that it measures the physical symmetry of an element and that this golden ratio is close to Phi, i.e. 1.62.

It was these novels that made it possible to declare Robert Pattinson the most beautiful man in the world, Bella Hadid the most beautiful woman in the world, and the Dalmatian the most beautiful dog.

What about cats? What is the closest cat breed to this golden ratio? There are three who share the title of the most beautiful cat in the world: the Norwegian (1.65), the Russian Blue (1.65) and the German (1.59).

Then we find Ragamuffin (1.67), Siberian (1.55), American Curl (1.56), Selkirk Rex (1.69), Siamese (1.55), Maine Coon (1.71) and Egyptian Mau (1.72). At the end of the arrangement are the Persian, Peterbild and Himalayan cats, which are scientifically considered some of the ugliest cats in the world.
