Good to know
- One of the oldest natural longhaired breeds, kept at Ankara Zoo to preserve the line.
- The single coat has no thick undercoat, so it mats far less than a Persian's.
- White, blue-eyed cats can be deaf on the blue-eyed side.
Who it suits
People who want an athletic, chatty cat that runs the house and supervises the guests.
Care
Comb once or twice a week. Ask about a hearing test for white, blue-eyed kittens.
History of the breed
Longhaired cats from Ankara reached Europe in the 16th century and were the original longhaired cat of the West before Persians overtook them. Near extinction by the 20th century, they were preserved by a breeding programme at Ankara Zoo, which still supplies foundation cats.
