The Persian Cats are natural breed cats, but the exact origins of this highly popular cat breed are disputed. Theories of the Persian Cats origin include stories of various wild cats, Russian Longhair cats, and Turkish Angoras. Some also believe that the Persian was an indigenous breed from Persia. However, this breed most likely originated from a thick-coated cat in the north and was brought down to present day Iran.
No matter its genetic or geographic origins, this breed was first discovered in the early 1600's by Pietro della Valle, an Italian traveler. He brought two Persians to Italy. By the 1800's, the breed was imported to France. Shortly after arriving in Britain in the late 1800's, it gained great popularity, becoming even more prized than the previously popular Angora.
Today, the Persian is the most popular breed at cat shows. It is known as "the aristocrat of the cat family", and contributes nearly 80% of the cat registrations in America. In Britain, the breed is valued to the point of classifying each different Persian color form as a separate breed.
The common names for this natural breed cat are Persian Cat and Persian Longhair. In its early history it was also called the Longhair, but this has fallen by the wayside. A domestic longhair cat today is a general term describing any cat with longhair that is not pedigreed, or belonging to a recognized cat breed.

The Persian face is naturally flat in relation to most other breeds, but has become even flatter through selective breeding. The extreme of this trend is known as the Peke-Faced. Persians are known for their luxuriant, long, thick coat. The outer coat is loosely fit and the undercoat is dense and wooly. Persians live long lives of 15 or more years.
