The Peke faced Persians were only bred in red. They fell out of favor a long time ago and are no longer bred, but the term stuck around. I think what you mean (correct me if I am wrong) is the extreme Persians that are seen in the show halls. They do not all have issues with the eyes being dirty, nor does having a moderate face mean that the cat will not have problems. Two of my least extreme cats (pets) have the dirtiest faces, while I rarely have to wash the face of my most extreme cat.. Even with the triangular face of this kitten, it could be Persian. I had a pet quality kitten in one of my litters that looked nothing like a Persian. She looked more like a small Norwegian Forest Cat. I KNOW who the parents are so I know she is pure Persian. She just got all the wrong genes in the gene pool, but it doesn't make her any less lovable.
She looks like a doll faced Persian. The peke faced Persian is the one with the flat pushed-in looking face which has problems with tear ducts which make her face dirty all the time. Your baby's nose is nicely out from the face, more like the original Persian. However since your kitty's face tends to be triangular shaped instead of round she is most likely a Persian mix. Very sweet looking.
What a gorgeous little girl !With all the fur pushed back, it's a perfect 'V'
I know what you mean. I had a kitten that was supposed to be a Persian but as a kitten she looked a bit strange, but when she grew she grew so beautifully and there was no doubt she was a pure Persian. So imo sometimes you can't really say what they actually are until they're fully grown. Sometimes a fluffy kitten grows up to be almost a short hair, that sort of thing. I'm far from being an expert but, I'm excited to see what Kiera would look like when she's older, and to what extent she would resemble a Persian.The Peke faced Persians were only bred in red.
