Silver Persians are sought after for there beautiful presence. With each new pet comes a long line of history and an extensive background of luxury and royalty. The breed "Persian" is the most popular breed of cats registered in the Cat Fanciers' Association.
Their heritage may be aristocratic and luxurious, but they are by no means delicate. Each cat has a long plush coat, heavy bones, largewide skull, large black lined eyes, round face, domed forehead, small ears, short nose, and is shorter and stockier then the normal cat. The nose of the Doll-Faced Persian is considerably shorter than that of an ordinary cat and has a break between the forehead and nostrils. Flat-Faced Persians noses have a more smashed in appearance. Their soft, dense coat is extremely long from head to tail.

Shaded silvers have longer color tips, while chinchilla can have little or none. Renowned for there dynamic eyes. The eye color is brilliant green or greenish blue. Outlined with black eye liner and black mascara, it makes them stand out in a crowd. Known as the little darlings of the breed they are the smallest. Often referred to as toy or teacup. Out standing personalities. They love people and are considered lap babies.
The Persian cat is believed to have originated somewhere in Asia Minor. The cat was then introduced to Europe, somewhere in the 1700s, where they became known as "French Cats". Short, stocky and long haired cats from Persia (present-day Iran) were then mixed into the gene pool, forming the breed we know and love today. The cat became extremely popular in Britain, where blue Persians were kept by Queen Victoria and other members of the royal family. The cat has been present in cat shows for more than 100 years, the first show being in Britain around 1871, where several colors of Persian were shown. The longer bodies, larger ears and small eyes made way for the short-faced and round-eyed felines we know today, due to favor gradually shifting from the classic Angoras to the more compact Iranian type. Though the cat has changedsignificantly since this time, it is still the same luxurious pet.
