Don't Want Any of These Cute Garfield and Lazy Cat
Many people ask: What is the difference between Garfield and Persian cats?Usually, we answer:Visually, there is no difference! As a breed derived from the Persian, many people are surprised,Besides hair length,this breed has 'no' difference,visually,Why are they still called Exotic Short-haired Cats/Long-haired Exotic Cats, instead of directly calling them Short-haired Persian or simply incorporating 'Exotic Longhair' into the 'Persian' category?The existence of any breed is,independent and unique,Garfield, also known as Exotic Short-haired, is a chubby and agile character,1960,marked the beginning of the search for a breed with a sweet and gentle face like the Persian, but also easy to manage for families. Exotic Short-haired Cats were destined to no longer be a branch of the Persian, but to become a new breed with 'distinctive characteristics'!'Garfield's head' requires,the 'nose break',to be,not too high,otherwise it affects the sweetness, but another very important but,easily overlooked,detail is 'the jaw' (lower jaw). If this part is recessed or lacks fullness, the entire circular structure of the head will be destroyed, affecting the overall beauty.For 'Exotic Short-hair' physique, we require,a short and compact build,short legs forming a short body; the parts are evenly distributed; the chest is wide and deep; the shoulders and hips are approximately the same width; the back is flat, with a short and rounded middle section; the body should have strong bones and good muscle tension!A good Garfield must have as dense fur as a British Short-haired cat, although it may not need to have good elasticity, the texture of the hair still needs to be,slightly hard,so that it can 'stand up' well!The Garfield, which looks like a Persian cat, the only difference from the Persian cat is that its hair is short and thick and plush. The ideal Garfield should be strong in bones, have a proportionate build, have smooth and rounded lines. With round, large, and firm eyes, a wide eye distance, a short neck, a short and thick nose, a high nose break placed between the eyes, a full cheek. Strong jawbones, a firm lower jaw. Small, rounded ears tilted slightly forward, with a wide eye distance. With large, round and firm paws, a short tail that is proportional to the body.
