The detail
A Persian with Siamese-style points and blue eyes, created by crossing the two breeds in the 1930s–50s. It has the Persian’s quiet, gentle nature, full coat and flat face, and the same demand for daily grooming.
What to weigh
Daily combing, eye cleaning and hygiene trims are routine. The flat face brings breathing and tear issues, and kidney disease is common in untested lines.
