They are quite loving and affectionate and make wonderful companion. Cat lovers love to keep Persian cats. They are available in a variety of colors and are extremely cute and loveable.
It is difficult for cat historians to determine exactly when Persians first found their way into civilization. Longhaired cats were first introduced to Europe in the sixteenth century, having come from Ankara, and then called Angora, in Turkey. These cats were called Persian for their country of origin, but hieroglyphic references of this breed as early as 1684 BC add uncertainty to their exact beginnings.
Persian Cats has large eyes that are round in shape and set wide apart. They were mainly white and had puckish, long nosed faces with pricked ears and fine silky hair which was very long and fell in abundance from a parting along the spine. Its long, dense coat compliments its well balanced body and appearance.
The Persian is a heavily boned, well-balanced cat with a sweet expression and soft, round lines. Despite their heavy appearance, Persians move with an unexpected agility.
Persian Cats need grooming right through, every single day, to keep the long, flowing coats free from tangles which may eventually form into dense mats. Therefore, anyone considering the purchase of a Persian kitten must be prepared to undertake regular brushing and grooming routines.
Although the coat in the very young Persian is too short to tangle up easily, it is important to establish the grooming sessions early, so that they are not resented later on.
