Cheddar wants to know if there are any other Exotics around?

[Toddlerteaplease]

She wants to say hello to her cousins. Absolutely nothing to do with me thinking that they are the cutest cars ever!

Forgot pics

My moggies aren't exotics so I am just here in hope of pics

She's booooooful 😍

Is Cheddar The Only Exotic on Mumsnet (apart from Snorg)?

Snorg isn't an Exotic. She's a Persian long hair. I only know of one My friend has a golden chinchilla Persian But not sure if she is an official Exotic. She has the most beautiful pair of green eyes you could ever see.

Sev is - though of the same colouring - a very ordinary cat of undetermined parentage (mother a pregnant rescue). I, too, am here for the pictures.

I'll post some more tomorrow. I'm over my limit today!

Ooh, I didn't know Snorg was a different breed!

They are both Persians. Snorg is a bog standard long haired Persian, Cheddar is a short haired exotic and my friends is a chinchilla Persian.

There is NOTHING "bog standard" about the gorgeous Snorg. One of the few Persians I find adorable rather than irritating (Fatty was on that list, and of course Cheddar is ).

Harry is deeply offended that you referred to Snorg as bog standard as he says she's definitely not!

She’s gorgeous😍

Oh goodness. Didn't mean to offend people and Harry. Of Course Snorg is not big standard. She's a gorgeous and wonderful feline and I am lucky she's my cat!

@Allergictoironing why do you find the irritating? Is the overbreeding & flat face issues? I totally agree about that.

Harry says that's a far better way to talk about his Snorg!

He said you're as bad as me as he's registered at the vets as Harry and not Baron Harry!

🤣🤣🤣🤣

She's currently snuggled on my chest purringbher head off. But she's sad that she's not found any other exotic friends.

Toddler yes it's the over breeding & exaggerated flat face that somehow irritates me. Yours manage to look bored and imperious at times (as a cat should!) whereas some just look grumpy all the time.

I couldn't agree more. I went to the supreme cat show, and was shocked at the face of the Persian that won. It was so over bred. just didn't look right. Snorg & Fatty have very open faces. I was genuinely surprised to discover that my pair were far better looking than any of the ones on show. (And I wasn't being biased!)

Stripe the Exotic (Longhair)

Stripe is lovely - what beautiful eyes - is Stripe a girl or a boy?

Hi, thank you. Stripe is a girl, we have her sister too who is also an Exotic Longhair, but she looks more like a full Persian with much more fur!

I have never heard of Exotic long hairs. I thought they were just normal Persians?

He's gorgeous though!
