Exotic kittens or Exotic
Shorthair kittens are a mix of the American Shorthair and
Persian breeds. Exotic Shorthairs have a body and large
head and eyes similar to the Persian but have a dense
short coat. Exotic Shorthair cats tend to be more active
than Persians but are still affectionate, loyal
and even-tempered so they get along well with animals
and children. They tend to be somewhat quiet. The
Exotic Shorthair's coat is easier to groom than the Persian's
but will still need regular combing and an occasional
bath. Exotic Shorthairs have a higher incidence of kidney
problems, runny eyes and breathing problems.
Following are several videos illustrating Exotic Shorthair
kittens.
