Persian Cat Breed is the
native of Persia (modern day Iran)
PersianHistory
It is believed that Persian breed was introduced to Europe in 17th century by European explorers, who brought them from faraway Persia along with jewels, silks and spices. Persians were imported to America in the late 1800s, where they were enthusiastically received. American breeders began a breeding program to refine the coat, color, and conformation. Soon the American Persian developed a style of its own and evolved into the type we see presently. Appearance The Persian is a heavily boned, well-balanced cat with a sweet expression and soft, round lines. They sport a long, flowing coat draped on a compact, chunky, short body. They are round headed with small wide spaced rounded ears and large round owl-like eyes. Personality Persians are generally quiet, calm and totally laid-back. They have a melodious voice and communicate delightfully with their large, expressive eyes. They crave affection and love to be petted and fussed over.
