Felis catus
✨ Morsom Fakta
Himalayans are sometimes called 'Himmies' by their devoted owners — and they're actually Persian cats carrying the Siamese colorpoint gene, not a separate species.
A colorpointed Persian — same round face, cobby body, and long plush coat as the Persian, but with vivid blue eyes and Siamese-style points (ears, face, paws, tail). Sweet, docile, and calm. Some registries classify as a Persian variety, others as separate breed.
