Which cat breed is right for you?
The Himalayan — known as the Colourpoint Persian in Europe — was developed in the 1930s–1950s by crossing Siamese with Persians to combine the Persian's luxurious coat with Siamese point coloring. This medium-to-large breed weighs 7–14 pounds and has the Persian's flat face, round body, and short legs. Their long, thick, flowing coat comes in all point colors — seal, blue, chocolate, lilac, red, cream, and tortoiseshell — contrasted against a pale cream or white body.
Himalayans are calm, sweet, and devoted cats that enjoy a serene environment and gentle handling. They are more playful than Persians — thanks to their Siamese heritage — and may enjoy short bursts of activity with a favorite toy. They are patient with well-behaved children and prefer a quiet household, bonding closely with their family while remaining friendly with gentle visitors.

The Turkish Angora is an ancient, naturally occurring breed from central Turkey — specifically the Ankara region — and is one of the oldest known longhaired cat breeds. This small-to-medium cat weighs 5–10 pounds and possesses a graceful, balletic build with a long, plumed tail, silky single-layer coat (no undercoat), and large, walnut-shaped eyes. While white is the most iconic color — often with striking odd eyes (one blue, one amber) — Turkish Angoras come in nearly every color and pattern except pointed.
Turkish Angoras are spirited, intelligent cats that love to be at the center of the action. They are natural athletes — leaping to the highest shelf, opening doors, and inventing games to entertain themselves. Affectionate and strong-willed, they will happily greet guests and supervise every household activity, often choosing one family member as their primary favorite.
