Which cat breed is right for you?
The Javanese is a longhaired variant of the Colorpoint Shorthair — carrying Siamese, Balinese, and Colorpoint genetics to produce a silky-coated cat in non-traditional point colors. This medium-sized, graceful breed weighs 5–10 pounds and has the Siamese's angular features, vivid blue eyes, and tubular body wrapped in a flowing, single-layered coat. Their point colors include red, cream, lynx (tabby), and tortoiseshell — any shade outside the traditional four Siamese colors.
Javanese cats are opinionated, highly vocal, and completely devoted to their people — inheriting the Siamese family's legendary sociability and talkativeness. They are extremely intelligent and can learn complex tricks, open doors, and figure out puzzle feeders with ease. They do well with older children and social pets, though they firmly believe they should be the household's top priority.

The Persian is one of the oldest and most recognizable cat breeds in the world, with roots tracing back to 17th-century Persia (modern Iran) and Turkey. This medium-to-large cat weighs 7–12 pounds and is instantly identifiable by its flat, pansy-like face, enormous round eyes, small ears, and luxuriously long, thick coat that can reach six inches in length. Persians come in over 80 color variations grouped into seven divisions, including solid, silver, golden, shaded, smoke, tabby, particolor, and pointed (Himalayan).
Persians are the quintessential lap cat — calm, sweet-tempered, and content to lounge on the nearest soft surface. They prefer serene environments and predictable routines, rarely displaying the high-energy antics of more active breeds. Gentle and patient with children, they coexist peacefully with respectful kids and laid-back dogs.
