Catster advocates for adopting before shopping, though we fully understand there are many reasons for seeking a breeder. So, we encourage it to be done the right way. We have not personally visited or investigated all of the breeders below. We have put the top-recommended all in one place for you to get in touch and make the best decision for you. Learn more about our stance and how to choose the right breeder here.
Persian cats are famous for their wide-set eyes, flat faces, and seemingly endless amount of hair. They are one of the most popular purebred cat breeds in the United States and for good reason. Persians are unique, and beautiful, and they also make great snuggly house cats.
If you are in Colorado and searching for a reputable Persian breeder within your state, we have got you covered. Purebred cat breeders can be slightly more difficult to track down, so we did all the hard work and have come up with a list of Persian breeders in the state.
We only found a total of four Persian cat breeders in Colorado that met our rigorous standards of quality, so we followed up with some additional Persian cat breeders in the surrounding states of Kansas and Oklahoma.
