A Persian meow is quite docile by nature and enjoys a laid-back environment. They are calm and independent and just as loving. On one hand, they like to snuggle into their parents’ laps while on the other side, they do not mind watching the views and the birds from windows all alone. All they need is a cat tree or a soft, comfy, sofa-like bed. Temperament They love being playful, but they also need peace and quiet. They do not enjoy climbing over the height and would rather prefer to rest up in an armchair or their bed. Persian purries make great pet cats around quieter children and easy-going doggos too. Features A round head, a short, cute face, a snub nose, and chubby cheeks, these beautiful features are the identifiers of a Persian kitty, and if these features weren’t so adorable already, their big round eyes and small curvy ears do the trick. Watch the smile perk up your face as you watch a Persian run towards you for attention on their short legs and sturdy, cuddly bodies. Colors The original and first-ever coat of a Persian purry was gray. As breeding happened, these kitties began to get spotted in multiple colors ranging from gray to silver, white, and solid-toned. Their eye color depends on the color of their coat. White Persian purries have deep blue or copper eyes, whereas, silver Persians or gold Persian
kitties have green eyes, and Persian kitties in other solid tones have copper eyes. Shedding Their coat tends to shed a lot. You can avoid or manage this shedding through regular pet grooming for cats at a salon or at home. As a routine, comb their coat daily to prevent the formation of tangles and matting. Regular brushing and grooming also keep the loose hair in check. Their Overall Health Owing to the Persian’s face, a short nose, the Persian purries may face certain health complications such as, Respiratory difficulty Excessive water in the eye Heat sensitivity Misaligned teeth Ringworms due to their long furry coat Skin rash, itching, and alopecia Renal diseases Few More Interesting Facts About Persian Meows Today, there are over 70+ colors in which Persian cats exist. The first ever cat show that the Persian kitty ever participated in happened back in London in 1871. When the breed of Silver Persians emerged in the U.S.A, the government wanted to patent it as its own breed under the name
‘Sterling’. However, this claim was rejected. Whether a silver meow or a golden meow, they are classified under the Persian category only. Choosing the Right Food for Persian Cats Owing to their small jaw and comparatively flat face, the Persian kitty finds it difficult to eat dry kibble or have enough water. This can lead to dehydration and cause the nutrition requirements to remain unmet. In such a scenario, to fulfill the Persian’s requirements, go with hair fall defense products and choose a feeding bowl or water bowl that is wider and shallower.
