Exotic Shorthair

Description:
Calm and cuddly, Exotic Shorthairs look like Persians but have shorter, easier to maintain coats.

Fun Fact:
Exotic Shorthairs are often nicknamed the lazy person's Persian.

History:
The Exotic Shorthair was developed in the United States by crossing Persians with shorthaired breeds. Breeders wanted the Persian's sweet personality and rounded features in a lower maintenance coat, creating a plush, relaxed companion cat.
