With fur that sometimes grows as long as six inches, Persians are one of the most dignified and beautiful cat breeds. However, if you own a Persian, you must commit yourself to year-round, daily grooming. Because the hair on a Persian tangles and mats easily, professional grooming is sometimes required. Persians also need frequent baths. Although their long hair makes them look massive, Persians are medium-sized cats. Their bodies are round and stocky, and they have large paws and small ears. Some Persians have pushed-in faces and turned up noses. These Persians are called snub-nosed and they look very different from more traditional Persians, which have nomal-looking faces and noses. Traditional Persians are often called 'doll-faced' Persians. Persians come in many different colors and patterns.
