The Turkish Angora, named for Turkey's capital Ankara, is one of the oldest long-haired breeds, dating to the 16th century.

Once nearly supplanted by the Persian, it was revived in the US from 1963 and is now carefully bred to preserve its pure bloodline.

Pet ownership brings costs, time, shedding, odor, zoonotic-disease risk, bites, noise, lost sleep, and the pain of saying goodbye (dogs live 10-15 years, cats 12-18). Think it through before you commit — and once you do, take responsibility for life.
