Persian



The beautiful Persian has a long and distinguished history and has appeared in cat shows for over 100 years. It is currently the most popular breed registered in Australia.
Famous for their placid, gentle temperament, Persians are quiet and affectionate and have an ability to adapt to any environment. However, they do not appreciate being teased or having their hair pulled and are probably more suitable to adult households or those with gentle children.
The Persian is particularly well suited as a house or apartment cat and being an indoor cat also helps to keep its coat in optimum condition.
Potential owners must be prepared to groom the glorious coat daily. This is a high maintenance breed which depends totally on its owner for its comfort and wellbeing. If grooming is neglected for any length of time the coat matts and will require expert attention. Persians moult heavily twice a year, and shed some hair all year round.
