Share

Excited Cats 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.

There’s no mistaking the adorable face of a Persian cat. Perhaps that explains why this breed often takes the top honors at many shows. Their sweet and easygoing temperament also endears these cats to many fanciers. It is easy to see why, too.

You’ll likely find many listings for pets hold by hobby breeders. We suggest you screen these ads carefully. We found a handful of sellers who put quality and the cats’ health at the top of their priorities. They often ask potential buyers to apply before they release their kittens to ensure they get the best possible home. They also offer health guarantees.
