ORINGINS

Turkish angora is a semi-long-haired cat breed from Turkey.

 

This cat is characterized by its very silky mid-length coat with no undercoats, and a fine silhouette that ranks it in the category of foreign cats such as Abyssinian or Russian blue.

 

A very ancient cat breed, the Turkish angora is the source of all the long-haired (Persian) and mid-long breeds (Norwegian, Maine Coon, etc.) present in Europe and America.

 

 

Natural breed having been very successful in the eighteenth century, this cat of medium size is currently still little known, despite great aesthetic qualities and character.
