It is wise to establish the routine of the bath when they are young. Persians are divided into seven color divisions for the purposes of competition. These divisions are established on the basis of the color pattern. Red peke-face Persians, with more extreme facial conformation, appear in both the Solid and the Tabby Division. Tabby Division Particolor Division Bicolor Division Himalayan Division Pricing on Persians usually depends on each individual kitten's bloodlines, type and applicable markings.
Many breeders allow pickup of new kittens between twelve and sixteen weeks of age.
At the age of sixteen weeks, kittens have had basic inoculations and developed the physical and social stability to adjust to a new environment. Four months also conforms to the minimum age for showing and transport by air. Keeping your cat indoors and neutering or spaying are essential elements for maintaining a healthy companion, and most importantly will extend the life expectancy of your cat. There are CFA clubs devoted to the promotion, protection and preservation of the Persian breed. For more information, please send inquiries to CFA, PO Box 1005, Manasquan NJ 08736-0805.
