The long-haired cat, originally known as the Persian or Angora cat, was established in 1935, following the results of the original American breeding program.
The original black long-haired cat crossed with the Siamese cat had given birth to three black short-haired kittens.
Later, the breeders let two of the kittens mate and got a long-haired kitten named "Social Maiden".
Then he mated her with the same breed to get an accent-colored long-haired kitten.
It is a very beautiful and gentle breed of cat that many people like as a pet.
Long-haired cats are the opposite of short-haired cats. Generally, the hair length is 10 cm or more.
Long-haired cats are very expensive. Long hair is a recessive trait and short hair is a dominant trait.
In nature, there are more short-haired cats than long-haired cats.
Purebred long-haired cats usually give a sense of nobility and elegance.
The price behind the beauty is the need for the owner to be more attentive to care.
So what are the famous long-haired cat breeds?
1. The Persian cat
The Persian cat is the most common long-haired cat breed known as the "Prince of Cats".
It is one of the top ten most popular pet cats in the world.
The Persian cat was born in 1860. It is one of the most popular pure breeds of cats in the world because of its lovely face, long and gorgeous back coat, and elegant demeanor.
2. The Angolan cat
The Angolan cat is one of the more popular ancient long-haired breeds.
They have an overall maverick personality and do not like to be petted or cuddled.
They are also quick and agile.
The most amusing part is that they are particularly fond of water, so they do not have to worry about resistance when they are given a bath.
3. The Ragdoll cat
The Ragdoll cat is an ideal family pet breed that is very friendly, has a high tolerance for pain, and has a bold personality.
This feline also has a rich back coat, thick limbs, and a soft body.
They are one of the world's ten best feed cats for beginners, with the beautiful and elegant appearance of the "fairy cat".
4. Chinchilla
The Chinchilla was originally revered as a pet of European royalty.
Perhaps it is because their ancestors have always lived in a privileged royal family, so most Chinchillas have a lazy personality, and arrogant noblewoman characters.
The Ginger that looks so cool is actually an arrogant ghost in front of his master and likes to interact with him.
It is worth noting, however, that purebred Chinchillas are still relatively rare.
But it is still easy to distinguish between the Golden Gila and the Silver Gradient Longhair.
Because the Silver Gradient Longhair has a more pointed face, while the Golden Gila inherits the flat face of the Persian line of cats and looks flatter in the face plate.
5. The Burman cat
The Burman cat, also known as the Burmese sacred cat, was first raised in ancient Burmese temples.
The Burman cat is a long-haired breed with a long body and a predominantly light blonde coat.
This gentle, friendly breed that enjoys the company of people and cats has become a more popular and popular cat breed.
Each cat has its own unique beauty. A cat's appearance is really only one aspect.
The most important thing is that there is more emotional interaction and communication between cats and us.
