Adoptable


Recommended Posts

Try to look at Craig's List wanted adds you will be amazed how many people want pure bread cats. And also if you want I can get in touch with the rescue group that we work with and see if they have anyone that's looking for a Persian (I trust them because they do interviews before they adopt). Or Petfinder.com. Good luck homing them ^_^.

This breader lady is giving these two away.

Not sure but one of them might be the one having the litterbox issue, she will go BY it just not in it, and thats with poo only so we think there are just too many kitties in the house.

She will get the spaide/nuetered upon adoption and yes they have shots

IM me for the email addy

Those are purebred persians, right?

Warning: They come with plenty of birth defects. Not necessarily trying to talk anyone out of adopting them - hell, if I didn't have a full house already, I'd consider taking both. I'm willing to do the extra work myself. but not everyone might know about the special needs of these cats.

Some things that they might have or develop:

Leaky eyes - Persians have malformed tear ducts due to the breeding of their flat faces. My Phoebe is only 50% pure, and her tears leak down her face because they're not shaped to properly drain back into the eyes. As a result, her white face is constantly stained black & red (cat tears turn red & black as they dry).

Hairballs - due to their coats, they tend to ingest more hair than most cats. You'll need to treat them or deal with lots of hacked-up hairballs/puke.

Poopy butts - you may need to keep their butts trimmed so they don't poop on themselves constantly.

Grooming - they need to be groomed CONSTANTLY or they WILL mat.

Respiratory problems - due to their flat noses, Persians frequently develop breathing problems.

They can be some of the sweetest cats on earth. But do not make the mistake of adopting one if you are not prepared for more work than comes with your average non-purebred domestic shorthair.

I can vouch for that. No more persians for me. I have actually had the best experiences in the past with humane society rescues that are not purebred cats.

(edited to add - also, they are very sweet and I loved my persian, but with kids, a job, a business on the site, just not the right cat for me). For someone with the time to spend I'm sure they would be good.

here be the site...

oh and those chowawa puppies, I got a pick of one of the pure breds and have to get it out of my phone. This is the last batch cause they are too tiny and she fears expensive c sections.....2 to 3 thousand for a doggie c section.

they adopted out the free ones for now but may have more someday......these left are just for sale as they are kittens.

Gitzie is half Persian and half Egyptian something. My ex got her for free because her parents were both show cats and it was an "oopsie" litter that they literally couldn't do anything with, since it was two different breeds of cats.

I will say that they aren't the brightest cats either. I'm not sure if that's Gitzie's Persian side or Egyptian Bosko...BUT...as much I love her to death and she is the light of my entire life (plus my mildly retarded rat, Mugen)...she's dumb like a sack of bricks.

Kay..imagine back...to high school. Do you remember the DUMBEST cheerleader in the group? That's Gitzie, but Gitzie is kinda goth. Basically if you've ever read JtHM, Gitzie is Anne Gwish.

So Persians, while totally stuck-up, pathetic, whiny, and stupid, do have such a cute girly personality that you end up loving them because you feel bad that they're slow.

BUT...if you have no patience with stupid pets, then Persians may not be for you. For some strange reason, I keep adopting animals that are a little bit...well..."special" if you catch my drift.

Also...I'm not sure if this is to do with her Egyptian breed or Persian side, but the breeder that gave her to my ex said that she would be prone to urinary problems due to her breed. But I forgot whether she was refering to the Persian in her or the other breed.

I'm sorry, I laughed so hard about that post, Cher.

:rofl:

i have a cat who's not very......quick.....either. She's not a persian, though.

She whacks her head on the bottom of the couch every time she runs under it......

i love my dumb cat, though. :p

:laugh: Glad you got a laugh out of it. I tell Gitzie all the time that if she wasn't so irresistably SASS-FILLED (almost like a doughnut, but instead of custard teh kitteh is filled with SASS) I would have let my mom keep her.

ALSO...she doesn't get enough...of anything. Persians are demanding. That's why I named her Gitzie...off of the girl in the movie Party Monster.

In a nutshell, my Gitzie is Paris Hilton. Same exact intelligence in a fuzzy black little body with white boots (designer white-boot-paws at that. I believe her paws are Prada, if I'm not mistaken, which according to Gitzie still aren't good enough because she wanted Versace!).
