The Himalayan, also called colorpoint Persian and colloquially referred to as Himmy, is a breed of
cat with extremely long, fluffy fur, and the blue eyes and the
points of a
Siamese. Himalayan is the American term, while in Europe they are referred to as colorpoint Persians.They were bred from Siamese (for the markings) and
Persians (for coat-length and temperament), and share the characteristics of both breeds. Himalayans are now considered the same breed for cat registries (
CFA), (
TICA) as the modern Persian
show cat since they have the exact same conformation with a pointed coat.
