About Persian cats
Persian cats are serene, affectionate, and quietly dignified companions that thrive in calm, predictable environments. They form strong bonds with their human families, choosing to cuddle peacefully in laps or nearby rather than compete for attention.
These cats are sweet and gentle but can be selective in affection, usually showing love to trusted family members. Persians are not highly active and prefer leisure and quiet; however, they do enjoy occasional bursts of playful energy. They are well-suited to adult households, families with gentle children, or seniors seeking a low-maintenance companion.
Persians appreciate routine and can adapt to moderately busy households if provided with cozy retreat areas. Their lifespan typically ranges from 12 to 17 years, offering long-term companionship.
⏳FUN FACT! Persians are one of the oldest cat breeds, with their history potentially dating back to the 1600s.

Things you should know about Persian cats
Cat Insurance
- Persian cats are among the most expensive breeds, so having insurance helps protect your investment by covering unexpected costs over their long lives.
- With smaller litters (typically 3–4 kittens), early insurance helps ensure they’re covered from the start.
- Their flat faces, while adorable, can occasionally lead to breathing or dental issues that can potentially lead to high vet bills.
- While generally healthy, Persians can be at risk for polycystic kidney disease (PKD). Choosing a reputable breeder adds peace of mind.
Pet Ownership
- These cats enjoy serene, calm environments, making them perfect for quiet households or indoor living in apartments.
- Persian cats form strong bonds with trusted people; households where someone is home most of the day suit them best!
- Daily gentle brushing and eye cleaning are essential to prevent coat matting and tear staining, maintaining health and comfort.
- Though typically calm, they do appreciate short play sessions—interactive toys or gentle play help maintain healthy activity levels.

Thanks to Knose our cat Louis is alive after kidney failure and a bypass operation. Without insurance it would have been too expensive to proceed. Knose has paid the claims promptly and the service team has been excellent in responding to our queries.
