There are many theories about the origin of the Persian cat. For example, it originated from the indigenous cats in the area of present-day Iran and Afghanistan, or the cats introduced to Europe from Turkey, or the cats that originated from the mating between the Persian cat and the Turkish Angora cat, and so on.
In the past, it was very popular among the noblewomen of the European courts to carry their pets in their carriages, in their palaces, or while painting portraits. For this reason, not only Persian cats, but also other pets such as Maltese dogs and Angora rabbits were very popular. These pets had to have an elegant and luxurious appearance to match the noblewoman’s noble status, and also had to have a quiet character to stay honestly in the lap of the noblewoman. The Persian cat has all of these qualities, which makes them a gentle breed that is very suitable for indoor keeping.
