The Persian’s sweet, round face is one of the breed’s most beloved features, but that flat profile comes with real physical trade-offs. Persians are a brachycephalic breed, meaning they have shortened skulls and compressed nasal passages. This anatomy can make breathing less efficient than it is in longer-nosed cats, and it makes them noticeably more…

Litter box habits reveal a great deal about a cat’s health and happiness, and for a long-coated breed like the Persian they carry an added layer of complexity. A flowing coat, a flat face, and a preference for cleanliness all shape how a Persian uses its box and how you should manage it. Get the…

Persians are often described as living room cats, and for good reason. They are calm, undemanding, and content to spend much of the day lounging in a favorite sunny spot.

Of all the health concerns that shadow the Persian breed, polycystic kidney disease, commonly shortened to PKD, is among the most important for owners and breeders to understand. It is an inherited condition that has historically affected a large proportion of Persians and related breeds, and it can quietly damage the kidneys for years before…

The sweet, doll-like face that draws so many people to Persian cats comes with a hidden cost. The same shortened muzzle that gives the breed its distinctive look also compresses the airways, the tear ducts, and the structures of the head in ways that can affect a cat’s comfort and health throughout its life. This…

Bringing home a Persian kitten is a joyful milestone, but this is a breed that rewards preparation. A Persian is not a low-maintenance cat that you can set up with food and water and leave to its own devices. Its coat, its facial structure, and its gentle temperament all shape the kind of environment and…

The breed carries genuine health challenges, the queens often need assistance during birth, and the kittens are fragile in their early days. Responsible breeding is a blend of genetics, veterinary knowledge, careful observation,…
