FAQs

Are Persian cats good pets?

Yes, Persian cats are excellent pets known for their gentle, quiet, and affectionate nature. They enjoy calm environments, love lounging and cuddling on laps, and are not overly demanding of attention. While they may be reserved around strangers, they bond closely with their families and can appreciate companionship from other pets.

How much does a Persian cat cost?

The cost of a Persian cat typically ranges from £800 to £4,000 depending on factors such as pedigree, breeder reputation, and whether the cat is show quality. Adoption from rescues is more affordable, generally costing between £80 and £400, though these cats may not have documented lineage.

Are Persian cats high maintenance?

Yes, Persian cats are considered high maintenance due to their long, luxurious coats requiring daily grooming to prevent mats and tangles. They also need high-quality food and regular veterinary care to manage breed-specific health issues such as respiratory problems, eye infections, and kidney disease. Many owners invest in pet insurance to help cover veterinary costs.

Why are Persian cats so expensive?

Persian cats are expensive mainly due to selective breeding for their distinctive physical traits and gentle temperament, ongoing grooming and healthcare needs, and their predisposition to hereditary health conditions that require costly vet care. The documented lineage and breeder reputation also influence the price, adding to their overall expense.
