Exotic Cat - Persian/American Shorthaired

In this blogtime of mine, let's talk about cats! I miss our cat. Actually, its my sister's cat. Since my sister is working, "Boa" is left with my mom (I also moved out since I had my son).

Exotic cat I think because she's a combination of a Persian shorthaired and American shorthaired breed. But upon searching the internet, she's more of a American Shorthair. Anyways, whatever the breed is, she's a unique cat because I really love the silver color among her white coat!


She's very interested in our surroundings. I often caught her watching outside our window. She's very interested watching birds or any outside activities. Very calm but loves to be played and petted. They get along with kids. Doesn't bite or scratch them when played.


She always wanted attention. She will do something that will caught your attention like tapping my arm or back with her paw, kiss my face or do some stunts.


Always wanted to sleep in a very quiet place. There's a room in our second floor that no one sleeps. I always caught her there near the window. When I'm looking for her, I always call her because sometimes I couldn't find her.


I've searched the internet and found this one. It might be helpful if you want to choose an American Shorthair from cat.breeds.com

Is the American Shorthair the Right Breed for you?
  • Moderate Maintenance: Regular grooming is advised to keep its coat in good shape. It stimulates circulation, massages the skin, and removes debris and loose hair. Frequency should be every few weeks.
  • Constant Shedding: Shedding will occur often for this cat breed. It is suggested to brush and comb its coat regularly to reduce the risk of it developing hairballs. Be prepared also to vacuum often.
  • Generally Healthy: It doesn't have as many known illnesses and conditions as other cats. Best for owners who do not want to worry about long-term medical costs.
  • Low Vocalization: It is known to be quiet. Therefore, owners shouldn't be concerned of excessive and undesirable crying or meowing, especially at night.
  • Moderate Attention: This breed needs a moderate level of attention. It provides the appropriate balance for owners who like involving their cats in activities but are also able to be independent. Time alone spent can be 8 hours per day.
  • Slightly Active: It does not mind lounging around and being lazy. Some exercise may be necessary to maintain its health. Nonetheless, this breed is perfect for owners who desire non-active cats.
  • Good With Others: It is usually good with everyone and can be moderately affectionate towards them.

Oreo: The Blue Cream Persian Kitten

This is Oreo. My sister's Persian kitten.

Persian cats has long flowing coat with luxurious full, soft wooly undercoat hairs with longer coarser guard hairs and a chunky body which is often referred to as "cobby". Their legs are thick and stocky. They have round eyes set in a sweet round flat face. The beautiful copper eyes of a Blue Persian cat are the most aesthetically striking feature. In fact, it gives out a commanding and often haunting kind of feeling when you look into them. The overall expression of its rounded face with soft lines makes it appear sweet and unique.

Persian cats are known to have a quiet, gentle, and easygoing personality. They are calm and undemanding and very affectionate. They are very placid and unlikely to scratch anyone. They enjoy spending time with their
owners and participating in daily activities. These Persian cats craves and demands your attention. They are playful and can give their owners much love and devotion. They love to be stroked and patted and lap up any attention you give them.

Described as a sweet cat, Persians are not particularly active. Though they do enjoy running and playing, they will spend a fair portion of the day sleeping.

The only concern is the Persian's large eyes, which tend to run and tear more than other breeds. Washing the cat's face daily helps prevent matting around the eyes and helps reduce the risk of eye infections.

Persian cats needs special attention because of its thick fur and long coat. Daily brushing is recommended and occasional baths may be in order when their coat becomes excessively dirty or matted. Knots are always a problem, so preventive maintenance on the coat is very important.
