Vanier Persians
Persian Cat Personalities
Persian cats are very quiet and well mannered cats. They make great companions for apartments. They are very trusting and sweet natured and are better suited for quiet adults than a busy household with children. Persians are strictly indoor cats, and can easily pick up respiratory issues. Persians require maintenace and that means additional expense. There will be vet visits. During the change of seasons your kitty may be sick and be on antibiotics. You will also need to find a groomer that will accept cats. Persians require quality food to ensure a long, healthy life.
Neutering and Spaying
All cats or kittens purchased must be neutered or spayed. I do not provide breeding rights on any cat. Unneutered cats, whether male or female, attract territorial marking. Adopting a Vanier kitten requires agreement to spay or neuter by 6 months. This will prevent territorial marking. All cats must be indoors. This will prevent contagious diseases and physical dangers to your valuable cat.
Declawing
Some people want to declaw a very active cat to prevent damage to the furniture. However, we recommend that you provide a cat tree or carpeted stand and see if the cat leaves your furniture alone before you ever consider declawing. Declawing is a brutal and extreme surgery,
Grooming for Persian Kittens
All Persians have full and beautiful coats, however they do require regular grooming. Persians must be bathed once a month and combed often to prevent matting. If severe matting occurs they can be shaved to a “lion cut” by a professional cat groomer.
