History
The first long-haired cats were brought to Europe by Italian traveler Pietro Della Valle at the beginning of the sixteenth century from the province Harassan that settled in Persia. The appearance of these cats was quite different than in modern Persian cats and more like today's angorok or Vans. What were the first eastern handsome Persians today can only be seen on ancient medieval drawings and engravings. It is interesting that in different countries fluffy cats named differently: Asian cat, Chinese, Indian and even Russian. The name of the cat received from the country and the area where they were taken. Many travelers delivered fluffy cats from Asia and claimed that they are descended from the wild cat and manul Barchan. But the name "Persian cat" was assigned to the long-haired cats and survived to this day. Perhaps the name does not indicate the true origin of the animals, but just a tribute to fashion.
