In an try to teach you about these pint measurement pixie Persians I’ve devoted this web page to make clear precisely what Tea Cup Persian cats are and why they’ve obtained the “teacup” terminology through the years.

First, let me make clear…. “Teacup Persians” is a descriptive time period, not a measurement class. So please, don’t purchase into false commercials or unrealistic measurement expectations of what the kitty will appear to be full grown.

Many Persian breeders will use the phrase “teacup” as a advertising and marketing ploy to land a sale when in actuality the ONLY coloration class that has actually earned the “Teacup Title” is the silver and golden Persian household.

I discovered this out the arduous approach years again after I purchased myself a Blue Eyed White “Teacup Persian”. He grew to a whopping 15 lbs and needed to be positioned in a pet residence as a result of he was far too giant to breed to any of my cats. I actually have been breeding White Persians for over 20 years I ought to have identified higher however obtained caught up within the concept he can be tiny, because the breeder acknowledged.

If somebody is claiming to have white Teacup Persians, Himalayan Teacups or bi-color teacups you’ll be able to financial institution on the actual fact they don’t seem to be a reliable place to ship your cash.

So bear in mind….teacups Persians should show SILVER OR GOLDEN on their physique to be labeled as a teacup Persian.

Simply to be crystal clear, I’m not saying silver with white or golden with white will not be small they secret’s silver or golden MUST be visually current on the cat to categorise as a “Teacup Cat”.

Common measurement Persians and Himalayans are often fairly giant, cobby and muscular.

Common sized feminine Persians or Himalayans steadiness out round 7-9 lbs.

Common sized male Persians or Himalayans steadiness out round Eight-12 lbs.

The Silver and golden Persians are simply naturally smaller cats however by no means are they grouped or categorized right into a “breed or measurement class” merely generally known as the smallest and most petite of the Persian feline household.

Silver and golden Persians often produce females APPROXIMATELY Four-6 lbs and males APPROXIMATELY 6-7 lbs.

The general bone construction of the Silver and Golden Persian is often extra diminutive than your common sized Persians or Himalayans…to not say that you just can not get an occasional small framed Persian or Himalayan from different coloration classes every so often it is simply the silver and golden’s are extra identified for constantly producing these small framed Persians.

The Teacup Persians are each bit as wholesome, loveable and inelegant because the common sized Persians they only have a smaller construct.

The Tea Cup Persians (at the very least those produced right here at our cattery ) are purebred and never in any approach crossed with one other breed to realize their naturally small cobby physique form/measurement.
