Do Cats Need to Fast Before and After Deworming?
Generally, cats do not need to fast before or after an internal deworming treatment—the medication can even be mixed into food. Observe your cat for 4–6 hours afterward for side effects, avoid diet changes and baths around treatment, and follow the recommended deworming frequency based on age and lifestyle.
Himalayan、Colourpoint Persians
The Persian is a widely known and popular breed; from its early crossbreeding emerged the Himalayan cat. The Persian's early evolution likely occurred on the cold Persian Plateau (today's Iran and Iraq). When Phoenicians and Romans brought these silky-longhaired cats to Europe, Europeans fell for them. Over the years, the Persian's long coat was deliberately retained and emphasized in breeding.

The Egyptian Mau (Felinae) is found worldwide. Although called the Egyptian Mau, it cannot be confirmed that it originated in Egypt; however, because its image and written records appear in ancient Egyptian murals, steles, and papyrus scrolls, people believe its ancestor is the African wildcat. In the 1950s, the Egyptian Mau was introduced to the United States and Britain, and in 1968 it won awards in formal competitions.
