Turkish Angoras do best with people who can match their sense of humor. Take note that once these cats get an idea, it will be hard to convince them to behave properly. Despite that, their charming nature will surely get you. If not, then it's best to look for another breed. These affectionate and gentle felines are devoted to their families, but they're also very smart, resourceful, crave play/interaction, and have a short attention span, which can be hard to deal with.
They're generally healthy, although the blue-eyed solid white Angoras may not be able to hear in at least one ear. This breed may also be susceptible to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and ataxia.
They have a single silky coat, and due to the lack of an undercoat, there'll be no tangles/mats to worry about. Grooming routines are easy, as weekly brushing/combing is enough. They also shed very little. Generally, their hair won't stop growing until they're around 2 years old.
Persistent litter box issues should warrant an appointment with your veterinary hospital Lexington, KY to make sure that your pet’s behavior is not caused by an underlying health issue.
