What wasn't mentioned was "seat of the trousers" soiling issues and types of kitty litter. Unless you keep a Persian's hygiene area short or short-ish, poop will stick to them. You'll have to check their rears everyday, unless you don't mind a poopy bottom on your bed or furniture. And, no, they can't clean themselves of a bowl movement that is stuck to them like silly putty wrapped in hair. As for kitty litter, my cat's breeder recommended we do not use clumping litter because it will stick to them, so there is that. I keep my cat's fur "short down" but it grows fast! Funny enough, he hates having soiled himself and will tell me. With his sweet dollface and lovely eyes, he paws at my arm, then quickly turn around as if to say, "Hey lady, I've got this situation you need to take care of right now!" He's got me well trained!

I didn’t really see any of these as a bad thing it just means they need a lot of love and care

I just got one, and he is everything you just described

Mylus was an Orange Persian cat and I got her at 6 weeks and I remember taking her a lot to the vet and they would tell me about the dental care they even gave me a toothbrush and toothpaste for cats she lived till she was 21 years old she passed now to one ago October 29th 2022

we have persian cat, just a random pregnant persian cat roaming around outside and knocking our door everynight looking for food and shelter, the owner abandoned it, then it gave birth to 3 babies and suddenly left our home, the we took care of the 3 babies, they grew healthy and never get sick, furry cats, then when they grew 1 has left, 2 had stayed, both of them got pregnant and give birth of 10 kittens at the same time, out of 10 only 4 have survived, others got sick since birth, now these two mother are very fat and healthy and again pregnant, the 4 kitten are all boys and they are healthy, they dont get sick, we only fed them what we eat, they dont choose, they adopted our environment, never had a problem with them

It’s true what you said. Persians are high maintenance cats. If you have financial issues i would not recommend them as yes they do require dental care, and also i have to have mines regularly shaved down as he develops mats once the coat is fully grown. He also gets easily overheated and this makes them very uncomfortable. You need to clean the eye stains regularly as they buildup very fast. They do mew a lot. They are very cute but as i have heard from other owners not all are lapcats. Lot of them don’t like to be picked up.

I have had 4 persians. Three now and one years ago. None of them have been very vocal. Also, if you get a doll face persian, they will not have the breathing and respiratory issues like ones with smooshed in faces

My mom favorite cat, Love you mom, the only cat we had that I wasn’t s scared of, lol our Persian cat was white with beautiful blue eyes. She had kittens under the couch.and she let us watch her give birth, we had a love place, a little messy at times lol however not really the living room I believe our cat name was Lily yeah they very vocal when they want to eat when they want to come in the room when they want you to pet them.

I'm going to get one soon so I need help how to raise it

I have 4 Persians and they are not vocal at all.

why didn't you just say they are hard work and not for someone who has never had a cat . Even though my cat is hard work I love him to death . they are so gentle Persian's . my cat loves baths

I can't be the only one with an easy going, low maintenance, full of common sense, one-eyed Persian, can I? Should be noted that they are NOT by any means stupid, and can be quite opinionated. My experience has been that, compared to previous cats we lived with, she appears to be more observant concerning our patterns in behaviour, judging them (almost with pity at times) then adapting. Only issue with vid - she only meows a lot on heat; otherwise, she's mute for most of the cat month, mainly using her actions, ears & tail to communicate with me - but she’s much more vocal with my son, often sounding a little critical, like a heckler at a comedy club. Anyhow... partner's work mate was a pedigree Persian (blue-grey) breeder who mentioned to her that a kitten was going to be killed because the breeder saw a financial loss, as she only had one eye & the mother focused solely on the others in her litter. Fair enough with the mother, we thought-ish, but the Breeder's thinking was unacceptable to us as a family. Took her MONTHS (hold up! - please consider how long a day can be with a "WTF 's going on & Where TF am I & What TF is that?" eight-week-old kitten, let alone months of that)- to adapt to us & our odd ways & funky music. BUT...she follows me around like a dog, she's interested in just about everything - especially humming, whirling, flashing, and smoking electricals...and her affections are only limited by us. I mean, we all love her but not like that, right? A great breed for all those who work from home - like myself, are living with long-term illnesses - like myself, but are not immobilized & can still defeat ninjas with a Jamaican patty (oh yes I can!!)...and pretty much any human who doesn't measure relationships by the work put in so much as the outcome.

Love the cat but the hair is just unreal and gets everywhere
