Persian                    Photo Pending

 

The Persian is the most popular breed of cat, and perhaps the most recognizable.  It is available in a wide range of colors and patterns.

Persians with the color point ("Siamese") pattern are usually called Himalayans. Individuals looking for this pattern are encouraged to consult the Himalayan breeders' list as well. The Persian is known as the Longhair, and the Himalayan is known as the Colorpoint Longhair. 

Solid chocolate and solid lavender Persians are known the Kashmir. It is still called by this breed name in some older cat breed books.   There is also makes a distinction between the Persian and the Pekefaced Persian. A Pekefaced Persian is a Persian with an extreme flat face, like that of a Pekingese dog. Some Persian are called a doll-faced Persian, which means that they have a less flat face look than the flatter-faced show Persian.

The Persian is a docile, gentle, affectionate cat. Although placid, they are playful in their own way. Daily grooming is absolutely necessary.

Annual registrations of Persian kittens of a single color often outnumber the kitten registrations of entire breeds.
