Persian cats are presented in the first event in Crystal Palace, London in 1871. As the specimens closer to the conformation of Persia became more popular types, efforts were made to distinguish it from Angora. The first breed standard (later known as the point of superiority) was published in 1889 by Harrison Weir, the creater showed the first cat. He stated that the Persian is different from Angora in the tail which is longer, fuller hair and rough at the tip and larger head, with less pointy ears. Not all cat breeders agree with the distinction of two types and in the 1903 book "Book Cat" Francis Simpson stated that "the difference, apparently with almost no difference, between Angoras and Persians was of so delicate nature that I should be pardoned if I ignore the ordinary class called the Angora cat. "
Bevill Dorothy Champion describes the differences between the two types of Everybody's Books 1909 Cat:
Our pedigree imported long hair-day no doubt cross from Angora and Persian, the second has a round head of the mantle, the former also is quite different qualities. The coat of the Persian consists of wool under a long outer coat and woolly coat. In the summer it lost all underwool thick, and only long hair remains. Also slightly shorter hair on the shoulder and upper back leg.
Now, the Angora has a coat that is very different, consisting of long, soft hair, depending on the keys, leaned into little curls or waves in the lower body. Long hair is also much on the shoulders and hind legs of Persia, is a big improvement, but failed Angora Persian in the head, the first having more wedge-shaped head, whereas that of the modern Persian superior roundness.
Of course. Angoras and Persians were constantly crossed, with an increase each decide to breed, but the long-haired cat is more obvious today grew from the Persian-Angora.
Champion deplores the lack of distinction between types of long-haired variety by the breeder of English, who in 1887, decided to group them under the umbrella term "long-haired cat."
