Hello!
I am new here and need help finding what I want. I am looking for a solid white Persian (like the Royale kittens). What is the name for these kittens, I thought it was the silver persians but am now confused. My next question is what kind of questions should I be asking my breeder? I am only looking for a pet but it must be a kitten, if it doesn't come spayed/neutered I will get that done as I am not interested in breeding. What is the price range that I should be looking at spending? Please let me know what you think so I don't sound like a complete moron when I talk to the breeder. I have been researching this type for almost a year now on my own but would now like some help. I am also not a 1st time pet owner, I have always had pets in my home with the exception of the last 2 years. I look forward to your advice and comments. Joni

Dear Joni:

You may be talking about Chinchillas, but I'm not sure as I'm not a proponent of "purebred" while there are still so many millions of loving, healthy, beautiful cats and kittens of all kinds desperately needing loving homes. Having said that, may I suggest you contact a "breed rescue" group for Persians (or Chinchillas or whichever type you desire) and try to not only satisfy your preference, but also rescue a cat who would be so grateful? You should be able to do this on Yahoo by going to, say, http://www.Persianrescue.com or http://www.Chinchillarescue.com (although that may bring up a site for rescuing chinchillas, I'm not sure -- Yahoo has a wealth of cat rescue sites, forums, and information, though, and you may start there, or just Google it).
Good luck with your search, and may it yield the perfect match.
