Hello :)

Hi everyone! I am an American living in the Middle East. I am from east TN originally. Before moving here I had two gorgoues gray cats sister from differant liters and was not able to bring them. It really broke my heart and I still miss them badly. That was 7 years ago and although I love cats I never would get another bc of the heartbreak of that. I do not think I could go through that again.

This past weekend some how my family and I (husband, son and I) ended up buying a shirazi cat that is 3 months old. She is pure white with striking blue eyes and has a beautiful personality. I could not have asked for a better one! We are really happy together and please read her page to get to know more about her and the sad way her life started.

I found this forum bc I was searching for more about her breed. I found someone else asking about the breed from this same city and I was like wow a cat forum and joined right away.

Welcome to TCS !

Your new cat sound gorgeous ! What's her name ?

For any one reading this that wants to know what a Shirazi cat is. It's a breed of cat from the Middle East that is a cross between Persians and Egyptian Maus.
It's appearance is a semi-longhair or longhair that resembles the traditional style Persian and occurs in a wide range of coat patterns including solids and tabby patterns.

Thank you for the warm welcome. It is weird we have yet to choose a name. Nothing  feels right! For every cat I have had names were easy and a perfect fit, but not with this one. My son likes fluffy or bunny and I kinda like Miss. Kitty. She just seems so prissy and cute

Bunny is a cute name for a cat - I haven't heard it before either. 

She sounds like a little princess.

She's gorgeous - her fur looks so incredibly soft, like something from a Downy commercial.

It really is!  I have had cats all my life and never had one have hair like her, it almost feels like silk..

Bunny won and kids always seem to pick some really great names.
