When you see a cat which is majestic and extraordinary looking you should know that you are looking at a pedigree Persian cat. These cats have muscular bodies and strong legs with a face which looks punched. They thrive on attention from you if you are a cat lover and also from people who do not like cats.

The Persian breed of cats is again divided on the basis of some of their characteristics. When you check them closely you will see that there are subtle differences in the color of their body hair. There are some outstandingly different features which make the Chinchilla breed stand out.

In 1908 with the Chinchilla Cat Club established, the cats started being exported to the United States. To really know and appreciate a Chinchilla Persian cat you have to make sure its a pure-bred cat, and to differentiate whether it surely is a Chinchilla Persian cat or not is to observe the color of its coat since that is the basis on which Persian cats are categorized. The extent of colored hair can vary. For instance a Persian with a black coat, the color would be on only about 1/7th of the hair.

In general a Chinchilla Persian cat has an undercoat of pure white and the fur on the back, head, tail and flanks is tipped black that gives off a characteristic of a shining silver coat. The legs of these cats can at times be slightly speckled with black tips whereas the chin, ear tuffs, chest and stomach are always pure white.

Theses cats get a glamorous look with their dark rimmed eyes which seem as if they are wearing eye makeup. The nose and lips also have black outlines.

The coats of Silver Shaded cats have different color hair tips which give them a shadowy effect. You will see some attractive colors from blue to lilac to chocolate. When you consider both Silver Shaded and Chinchilla the former has more ’shadowy’ coat. The coats have a fantastic mixture of colors giving it more shades than you can imagine.

There are some cats which have variety of shades in their underlying coat which is completely wonderful and a treat for the eyes and they are appropriately called Golden Shaded. Also there is a breed called Cameo Persian with few red tips on their coat.

All these cats are known for their beautiful dark rimmed eyes, nose and mouth, except for the Golden shaded whose eyes and nose is outlined in brown instead of black. The eye color of these cats is primarily supposed to be green or blue-green. This recognized characteristic in all Chinchilla, Golden Shaded, Silver Shaded and Cameo Persian cats helps to differentiate the pedigree because a pure-bred cats eye color will be either green or blue-green.
