Know All About Red Persian Cats

by Cynthia Turner

Unless we put the Persian cats into particular category it will be impossible to recognize them as in recent times they are coming with a blend of different color coats.

Hence to achieve this eases these families that the Persian cat has been assigned to, are mainly governed by the color of their coats. For instance the Golden Shadowed, Silver Shadowed, Cameo Shaded, and then there are the Red Persian cats.

Originally the Persian cats had white colored under coat with layers of various color tips on the coat hair which is known as ticking. But now you can see absolutely new colors like blue cream due to cross breeding of these cats.

Pure white albino Persian cats are very uncommon and you will see Persian cats with red coats just like ordinary cats. The shade of red that you find in the Persian breed is not a pure shade of red which you may assume but it is more on the shades of orange or ginger with variation. You will find hints of brown or white on the tips or all red. Most of the red Persian cats however have a red coat all over.

The coat, lips and chin of the red Persians are red. You will discover that the nose leather and the paw pads are brick red while eyes have brilliant copper color which is totally unlike the Silver Shaded or Chinchillas which have green or blue green eyes. The gorgeous black rims around the eyes will give an impression that they are wearing eye makeup which is common in all Persian be it Silver Shaded, Chinchillas or Red cats.

You would see that red colors can occur with patches of different colors like cream, white and cameo as well. Let us take the Smoke Tortoiseshell Persian that has a layer of white under coat and deep black tips which stand out prominently with random patches of red and cream on the tips too which makes it look like a tortoiseshell.

Along with the fascinating patterns that occurs in this breed of Persian cat, there is occasionally present the blaze of red color or cream tipping on the face which is liked by many people.

You will see that most of the breeds of Persian cats like Shaded, Golden Shaded or Chinchilla have eyes shaded green or blue green. Only the Tortoiseshell Persian cat and the Red colored cat families have eyes that are of brilliant copper colored.

The only dissimilarity that you will find in Red Persian cats is that they have fluffier and longer mane but as far as other physical characteristics are concerned like punched face, short and bulky legs, solid body, dark rimmed eyes are similar to the other Persian breeds. The chin and lips have similar shade as its coat.
