Himalayan for Adoption in Quebec

Find a Himalayan in Quebec

The Himalayan, a cross between the Persian and the Siamese, combines the majestic beauty of the Persian with the colourpoint colors and blue eyes of the Siamese. On QuebecAnnonce, find MAPAQ-registered Himalayan breeders in Montreal, Laval, Gatineau and across Quebec. Browse our cats for adoption section for the latest Himalayan kitten availability.

As with the Persian, genetic testing is essential: PKD, HCM and PRA. Favor breeders who prioritize moderate facial profiles for better respiratory health. The Cat Fanciers’ Association (CFA) classifies the Himalayan as a division of the Persian.

Himalayan Characteristics and Temperament

The Himalayan is a medium to large cat with the stocky, massive body typical of the Persian, covered in long, thick, silky fur. Its colourpoint coat features a light body with darker extremities in seal, blue, chocolate, lilac, red, cream or tortie. Its deep luminous blue eyes are among its most captivating features.

The Himalayan is calm, gentle and affectionate, with a more playful temperament than the pure Persian thanks to its Siamese heritage. In apartments in Montreal, Laval or Gatineau, the Himalayan is ideal for those who appreciate a calm, majestic cat. Daily brushing is required to maintain its luxuriant coat. With a life expectancy of 12 to 15 years, the Himalayan rewards that grooming investment with royal beauty and steadfast affection in your Quebec home.
