Critical Care Requirements

Daily Eye Care

Persians have flat faces (brachycephalic):

  • Must be cleaned 2x daily minimum
  • If not cleaned, eye infections develop
  • Staining around eyes needs gentle treatment

Coat Care

  • Long coat mats in 24-48 hours without brushing
  • Minimum 2 brushings daily
  • Full grooming every 3-4 weeks
  • Belly and leg areas mat fastest

Breathing

  • Flat face = potential breathing issues
  • No excessive heat (above 25C problematic)
  • Air conditioning mandatory
  • Cannot exercise heavily

Questions for Hotels

  2. Do you brush twice daily?
