Persian
The Persian cat, also called Persian, Chinchilla, or Himalayan, with the Latin name Persian, represents nobility in people's minds. In China, most people's first pet cat was a Persian. However, most kept Persians are not purebred but non-purebred bred by merchants to meet the market; purebred Persians cost over a thousand dollars. Originating in Persia (Iran), it was developed in Britain over more than 100 years from Afghan longhair and Angora cats.
Birman
The Birman, also called the sacred cat of Burma, is a medium-sized cat with the Latin name Birman. Although now distributed worldwide, legend says they once lived only in Myanmar and were kept by temple monks; because they guarded the hall, they are considered temple guardian cats.
SingapuraใKucinta
The Singapura originates from Singapore and is also known as the Lion City Cat. With the English names Singapura and Kucinta, it is the smallest cat breed in the world, attracting much attention from cat lovers. Its less pleasant nicknames, drain cat and sewer cat, come from its living environment: early on, the Singapura was unwelcome among locals and forced to live in drains or sewers, hence the names.
Scottish Fold
The Scottish Fold's ears fold neatly forward over the head, earning it a place among the 'elf' cats. It is said that in 1961, a farm cat in Scotland gave birth to a litter containing a strange kitten with white fur, folded ears, and an owl-like face. Named after its birthplace near Coupar Angus, Scotland, and its folded ears, the breed became known as the 'Scottish Fold'.
