Monday, February 15, 2010

Thinking of getting a pretty Persian cat for yourself?

So here’s what you should do/ ask when choosing a breeder of Persian Cats -

  • Assess the reputation – Everybody has a reputation but you should only go for the one with a good one and a reliable one.
  • Ask Questions – Ask the breeder clearly about his practice, the duration of practice and his experience and whether the cat he bred were healthy or unhealthy. The last point can be a little dicey because nobody would really be putting up a banner and say that I breed about 10 unhealthy cats a year. So this answer will require a little of your judgment.
  • Inquiring about cat show appearances – A good breeder should be a regular at cat shows and winners from his or her cattery wouldn’t mind at all.
  • Gene Pool & Genetic Defects - Detailed Knowledge about his current gene pool and the potential of defects.

Wholesome Diet for Persian Cats – Healthy & Nutritious

Sunday, January 10, 2010

The main ingredients in wholesome Persian cat food are health, nutrition and obviously taste. Unhealthy, stale and inappropriate food can lead to many ailments in Persian cats. Diarrhea, infections, obesity and even mental problems such as depression are only some of diseases that can give Persian cats a hard time due to unhealthy food habits.

We humans have become congenial (sadly though) to unhealthy food. Our bodies may have become compatible to totally wrong food but the same can’t be imposed on Persian cats (who are still going the nature’s way and can only digest fresh and nutritious food).

Persian Cats Diet – Only Fresh & Nutritious Allowed

Following the rules laid down by nature, Persian Cats, although domestic, prefer natural, raw and fresh meals. Also if they wish otherwise, their fur will lose its sheen and you’ll have unhealthy, drab-looking Persian cats with sunken eyes :( .

Washing raw foods such as chicken pieces, sea fruits, sea fish under water is extremely important lest you want your cat to catch an ugly infection. Boiled vegetables, served along with finely cut meat pieces is another delight that will completely bowl your cat over. If going for canned food, ensure that it is appropriate for the Persian cat’s age.

Persian cats should be given fresh water and milk, cheeses, eggs should be boiled and then given. And if you thought only people should go for low-fat, then you were mistaken. Low fat cat food does loads of good to Persian cats and is the healthier choice, if you want your cat to be as purr-fect as it should be!

Persian cat’s food must have vitamins in abundance, apart from standard nutrition. To help you in some way, PurrinLot kitchen has some really healthy delights for you to choose from and feed your cat. Persian kitten glop, cat cookies and healthy Kitten chicken soup from PurrinLot’s kitchen are only some of the ways in which you can provide nutrition to your Persian cats!

Remember food is for imparting energy and nutrition to the body and not diseases. Let your Persian cats enjoy the perfect slice of health.

Color Me Persian – Persian Cat Colors

Thursday, January 7, 2010

Persian cats have become much adored pets and favorites of cat lovers all because of their beauty and long-haired semblance. Speaking of semblances, color is another aspect you cannot ignore in these cute felines. Persian cats come in a variety of color categories. From solid color to smoky and shaded, cat lovers have a lot to choose from.

Color of a Persian cat does not affect either its temperament or its ability to connect and bond with owners or family (except for the tabby, who are extrovert and fun loving but if their color has something to do with it is doubtful). Most calm and affectionate of all cat breeds, Persians kittens and cats make great pet friends for kids and adults alike! So when choosing a Persian kitten go for the cat and not the color (unless you have a preferred color in mind).

Persian Cats can be classified in the following color categories:

Solid Color – Persians in solid colors have spotless coats in white, chocolate or black. Their fur is devoid of smoky spots or any shaded areas. Many people go for solid color Persian cats due to their pristine look.

Silver and Golden – The Chinchillas rule this division. Elegant and unique silver chinchillas are a breed most sought after. Appearing exotic and heavenly, these Persian cats are quite a hit with people believing luxurious lifestyles. The color Black sprinkles its own beauty on silver and golden ground colors, making the Persian cat more ethereal.

Shaded and Smoked – When a solid color mischievously conceals white undercoat, giving glimpses of either black or red tipped hair, we have a cute smoked or shaded Persian cat right there!

Tabby Persian Cats – Rated as the most playful of the litter, the tabby Persian cats have a lot of color contrasts. In a Tabby Persian cat, you can see a narrow lining encircling the entire body. These appear to be rough and sturdy.

Particolor – Another patchy division, Persian cats of this division have different color patches toning the coat.  Appearing lovely and cute, Particolor Persian cats look zesty and fun.

Bi-Color – These Persian Cats have white mixed with red, black, blue, chocolate or cream. Not a watertight category, this one can include Tabby or Smoked Persian cats.

Himalayan
– Himalayan Persian cats are undeniably the most popular Persians in the world. Mostly white, colors like chocolates, red, blue, lilac, cream limited to facial mask and extremities often characterize these.

Whatever the color may be, a Persian cat is truly a favorite domestic pet. Know what you want at PurrinLot about Persian cats, your Persian cattery!
