Turkish Angora

Profile of Turkish Angora

As their name suggests, the beautiful Turkish Angora comes from Turkey, where it has always been highly valued. There are records of these cats that date back to the 16th century. It was this breed of cats that contributed to the development of the Persian cats.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Angora cat was almost extinct, but since the breed was considered a national treasure in Turkey, a program for breeding Turkish angora was developed at the Ankara Zoo.

During the 1950s, U.S. service members spotted these beautiful cats while visiting the Ankara Zoo, but it wasn't until the early sixties that the zoo allowed the American colonel's wife, Lisa Grant, to purchase a pair of individuals that were later brought to the U.S.

The Cat Fanciers Association registered this breed only in 1968 and took part in the Cat Championship in 1972. In 1979, the Angora breed received champion status in the International Felinological Association.

what is the Description of the Turkish Angora Cat?

Is a Turkish Angora cat rare?

The Turkish Angora is a beautiful cat that boasts a very long and delicate-to-the-touch coat. They are well-balanced cats, and when they move, they do so gracefully.

The Turkish Angora has a small head, the eyes are large in the shape of a walnut. Cats always have a kind, open expression in their eyes, which adds to their attractive appearance. The eyes can be any color and do not necessarily have to match the color of the cat's coat. Their ears are wider at the base, large, and also slightly pointed at the tips.

The Turkish angora also stands out for its long, slender body. They have long elegant legs, the rear ones are slightly longer than the front ones. The paws are oval in shape and small, in proportion to the cat's legs.

Angora cats weigh from 5 to 6 kg and cats from 7 to 8 kg. They can live 15-18 years.

What is the personality of the Turkish Angora Cat?

The Turkish Angora is a very active, agile, and assertive cat. She is very curious, so from the first day in the house, she will be interested in everything you do, while offering her help every step of the way. Her quick wit and energetic nature can make her a great choice for families with children, just make sure that children do not pull her hair and tail, as well as for everyone else, including the elderly.

Turkish angora loves interactive games, and she will be very bored if you do not pay her due attention. In order for the cat to train its body and its hunting instinct, provide it with toys that it can hunt for, as well as all sorts of cat climbs that the cat can climb. She really likes to be on top.

Try not to give this cat the opportunity to learn bad habits. Once she learns something, then it will be difficult to retrain her.
