Persian cats are loyal, obedient, and people-oriented. They are the perfect size for snuggling. Persian cats typically weigh eight to ten pounds and lead a sedentary lifestyle. Despite their size, Persians do not tend to shed much. However, they do require a lot of attention, and are prone to separation anxiety. Here are some important tips for adopting a Persian cat. Read on to discover more about Persian cat breeds.

Flat-faced Persians

A popular type of Persian cat with a flat face is called an Ultra-Persian. These cats are extremely flat-faced, and fall into either Category III or IV. These cats are a result of random genetic mutations that occurred in red Persians during the 1950s. Breeders quickly fell in love with this over-emphasized version of a traditional Persian. Today, most people associate the look of an Ultra-Persian with the classic Persian.

Himalayans

The Himalayan cat breed is a popular pet in the United States. Its long, soft, fluffy coat makes them look very soft and cuddly.

Introducing Cats and Dogs Living Together

- by Elbrock Sodherock

With an increasing number of pet owners having a mix of two species, cats and dogs living together may become a reality in the future. But what exactly should you do with your two new family members? First, learn about the rules of introducing them to each other. This includes keeping them apart for a while and introducing them at the same pace. You should also introduce them to each other slowly, and don’t force the issue!

Getting used to each other’s smell

It may take a few days to get used to the smell of both cats and dogs living together, but the rewards can be worth it. This will make your pets more accepting of each other’s presence, even if they don’t like each other’s smell. Just remember to rotate your rooms during this transition, and avoid putting them in confined spaces. If the situation does become a problem, you can always get a different pet for a couple of days.

You can start by introducing your new pets gradually, by letting them spend a few days separated. This will give them time to get used to each other’s smells and sounds. To ease the introduction process, try …

How to Adopt a Dog for Free

- by Elbrock Sodherock

There are several benefits to adopting a dog for free. Not only are the dogs from rescues and shelters healthy, but they also have been treated and checked by a veterinarian. If you have questions about your adopted dog, ask the rescue group or shelter. You might also be able to get a follow-up visit for free, which is especially helpful if you’re unsure of the dog’s health.

Costs of adopting a dog

Before adopting a dog, you need to calculate the costs of its health care. The adoption fee may include an initial checkup, collar, and leash. The adoption fee may also cover a free bag of premium dog food. Other costs include food, dog bowls, bedding, and vehicle restraints. You can get these information from your local animal shelter or veterinarian. Some shelters waive their registration fees for adopters, but it is still important to ask before adopting a dog.

Although large shelters are more convenient, their adoption process may take weeks or months. Smaller organizations might take even longer to approve you because the staff has to work around your other commitments. Nevertheless, they’re worth trying. You might be surprised at how affordable adopting a dog can …

Individuals may also request training of their horses without further riding instruction for themselves.
