Last night I bought a Himalayan persian kitten. I named him Trey. Trey was born on August 11, 2009. He and I are both Leos. He cost $350.00 and he was well worth it. This is the only Pedigree cat that I've ever owned. He's my new buddy. I give Trey a 5 star rating.

The Himalayan inherited the body and coat type of the Persian and the coloring of the Siamese. They are gentle and friendly like their Persian cousins but more active due to their Siamese ancestry. Like Persians, however, their upkeep is demanding since their coats require daily care. They have also been bred to have unnaturally flat faces, which some consider unattractive and which can cause respiratory problems.
