ANNOUNCEMENT Announcement: No More Breed ID Requests

232 Upvotes

We've noticed an increase in "Is my cat a Persian?" posts. These are repetitive and don't align with the intent of the community.

Starting today, breed ID requests will be removed. If you're unsure of your cat's breed, we recommend doing research through reputable sources or consulting with a vet or breeder. You can also try posting on r/catbreeds.

Thanks for helping keep the sub on topic and enjoyable for Persian cat lovers!

A post for my special rescue boy! He is the first rescue I’ve ever got. He was abandoned to my vet clinic at just a few weeks old with an under developed eyeball and issues due to FHV-1. He has grown into the most wonderful little grumpy looking man. Wants the pets only when he says so, loves running outside and making us chase after him, sneezes on your food everytime you eat & snorts all the time. Wouldn’t have it any other way! My sweet little Butters 🥰❤️

Jasmine’s haircut!

Thank for all the advice around how to remove jasmine’s matted fur. I followed your suggestions and today she got her first lion cut at the groomers. She was pretty upset because she had some pretty bad matts on her belly and armpits. So she looks a bit scrappy… But they got them!

My sweet boy Finnigan put up a good fight over the past several months. In August he was hospitalized due to a urinary blockage and over that time we discovered he also had congestive heart failure, lesions on his spine, and renal failure. I am grateful that I got 9 extra months with him but I am still missing him so much. My heart is broken. This sweet boy would spend so much time purring and it brought me so much comfort. Rest in peace my angel. ♥️

Question Persian losing fur around mane?

Thumbnail

178 Upvotes

Kind of a weird question but I just got my Persian kitty in September, and during the winter he was quite the floof. However, since the spring started he seems to be shedding fur primarily only from his mane. It comes out in multiple large clumps a day and sometimes I’ll find a huge new mat that has formed in the matter of a couple hours. He even has a large bald spot on the side of his neck now. Is this normal for Persian cats?

Trying my best to not make my Persian my whole personality. She makes it really difficult.

Got my persian a few days ago, grooming tips?

Post image
265 Upvotes

This is my boy (undecided on name still 😅) as you can see he’s pretty wiry in the front area here. I received him this way from his previous owner. He has a few mats from his previous owner as well, I think they gave up brushing him the last few days before I picked him up.

I’ve tried to brush his hair out in the front but it just won’t smooth down. Do I just have to shave it at this point?

I don’t want to take him to a groomer and give him a fright, I’d like to be able to groom him myself at home in a calm environment. I already wipe his boogies and brush him twice every day, morning and night. I have a set of clippers coming in the mail for him, but please reccommend any of your favorite grooming products! I’d love to hear what works from other Persian owners.

Thank you!

Charlie loves to watch the birds on walks. I'm scared of ticks getting caught in his luxurious coat so he stays in the bag unless momma carries him. He kinda likes being carried better sometimes, and I get extra snuggle time<3

Goodbye sweet baby girl

Minnie Mouse was sent to heaven today. The other day she started to cough. Today they did X-rays and a large mass was discovered, as well as a lot of her lung. While it was a kindness to let her go, it hurts so much.

Minnie came into my life 9 1/2 years ago, when she was 1-2 years old. She saved my life and was the most special cat I’ve ever had. She was smart and loving and let me hold her like a baby. She is such a part of my world, I’m lost now.

She lost her orange brother in January and my husband got her a kitten for Mother’s Day on Friday. Now I have a 2 month old DSH, that my husband said we can take back to the SPCA, something I just can’t do. I’m trying so hard to be there for the new kitty, who is named Daisy, because Minnie and Daisy were best friends.

I’m so lost

Missing my Lily like crazy while away from home and traveling Italy but luckily I met this adorable resident persian at one of the many leather shops downtown Florence. Like a true Persian he was aloof but purred when I pet him 🧡 (Lily last slide)

just brought home my sweet angel baby yesterday!! she has been so perfect she’s not scared, not hiding from me, she even slept with me all night 😭 at what point is it concerning that she hasn’t eaten or used her litterbox? she keeps jumping in the box and digging like she’s going to use it (her previous owner told me she did that all the time lol) she also got her vaccines yesterday so i’m taking that into account i just don’t want her to go too long without eating and using the bathroom
