I Just adopted a beautiful adult Persian cat 3 days ago. He was at a shelter in Salt Lake City and I fell in love with his adorable flat face.
He is orange with stunning yellow eyes and a funny temperament.
The first day I brought him home he hid under the bed and would not come out, but that night he turned into a cute little beasty.
Not only did he come out but he made a game of jumping on top of me, and sticking his nose in my face then he would demand to be petted.
After that he would get down, wait until I started to fall asleep, and then do it all over again.
He even did the same thing to my Shih Tzu a few times. She solved the problem by crawling under my blanket and into the safety of my arms!
All and all I think that if you give this breed of cat a quiet, safe, and loving environment to de-stress and explore they can be terrific pets.
Biscuit bit me twice at the shelter and a few of my scratches even bled but now that he feels safe he is really a very sweet kitty who wants nothing more than to play and be petted.
I would put a picture up but I want to give him more time to adjust before taking him to the groomers, and his hair is a little to scary for his close up.
