Persian cats date all the way back to the sixteenth century. Although their origin is unknown, it is thought that they originated in Mesopotamia, which was later known as Persia (thus the name), and is now modern-day Iran. They are claimed to have been smuggled out of Persia in the 17th century by European adventurers.
This Middle Eastern cat has long been a favorite of historical personalities like Florence Nightingale as well as royalty like Queen Victoria. Additionally, they have appeared in films, such as Mr. Bigglesworth in the Austin Powers series and as Blofeld's pet dog in the James Bond series. However, the latter is said to have lost his hair and was first played by a Sphynx cat for comedic effect.
