Few people keep Persian cats because they have genetic diseases and are expensive; they have princess disease and are difficult to take care of; their hair is long and difficult to take care of; they are sometimes clingy and sometimes cold; they have delicate stomachs and poor physical constitution.

If you have a genetic disease, the cost will be high

Persian cats are born with many genetic diseases, also known as "aristocratic diseases", such as polycystic kidney disease. 30% of Persian cats carry the polycystic kidney gene.

Once a Persian cat becomes ill, it not only takes time to take care of it, but also requires a lot of treatment costs, which is not affordable for ordinary people, so fewer and fewer people keep it.

I have princess disease and it’s difficult to take care of me

Persian cats may have a little bit of "princess disease" due to their noble birth. They are sometimes emotionally unstable and very pretentious, and they don’t know where they offended them.

Many people like well-behaved and worry-free cats, so Persian cats are even less popular. This shortcoming is not acceptable to every pet owner. After all, everyone wants a better cat-raising experience.

Long hair is difficult to manage

Persian cats are long-haired cats. Their hair is long and they look very noble. Although they are good-looking, their long hair is very difficult to take care of and the hair gets dirty easily. If it is not groomed, it will become a beggar cat.

Moreover, the Persian cat sheds very seriously. After raising it, its hair is everywhere in the house. So it is terrible to say that the Persian cat sheds hair. No wonder no one dares to raise it.

Sometimes clingy, sometimes aloof

Persian cats are very afraid of the cold and will be very clingy in winter and will often jump on you; but in summer, Persian cats are very afraid of heat and will become less clingy and do not like to be hugged because of the hot weather. .

Therefore, Persian cats are sometimes aloof and sometimes clingy, making their owners very crazy and unable to understand what they are thinking.

Weak intestines and stomach, poor constitution

Persian cats have poor gastrointestinal conditions and are prone to diarrhea, vomiting and other symptoms. Their physique is called the "Lin Daiyu" of the cat world. Persian cats with very poor physiques are actually not easy to take care of. They must pay great attention to their diet.
