Persian Breeders

Persian

The Persian is one of today’s more popular breeds of domestic cat. These cats are short and broad-bodied; easily identified by a unique, characteristically pansy-shaped face and large, expressive eyes. Requiring daily maintenance and an indoor lifestyle, the Persian’s long, plush coat appears in a variety of patterns, including the pointed, tortoiseshell, blue, and tabby. Persians are sweet and gentle cats with markedly amiable and quiet personalities. Environments absent of loud or chaotic elements will best suit this calm and docile breed’s gently playful and undeniably responsive nature. Named after their (formerly known as Persian) Iranian region of origin, these long-haired cats underwent further development and grew in popularity after migrating with European traders to countries such as England. The average life expectancy for a Persian ranges between 15-20 years of age, growing 10-18lbs. once fully mature.
