The beautiful, ancient Persian cat<\/a> has been around for quite some time. Throughout the existence of the breed, there have been several different color variations. A Persian is extremely versatile in their colors and patterns, hitting just about every category on the spectrum.<\/p>\n

In this article, we’ll learn a little bit more about the different colors associated with Persians so you can see what your ultimate options are when selecting a kitten.<\/p>\n

The 13 Persian Coat Colors<\/h2>\n

Persians can come in pretty much any color you can think of, but we\u2019re going to list the most common ones.<\/p>\n

1. White<\/h3>\n

Perhaps the most well-known Persian coat color is white, as this is the color many people think of when they think of a Persian. White Persians often have blue eyes and are seen commonly in pop culture, such as Snowball in The Simpsons<\/em>, and a white Persian is the face of the cat food brand Fancy Feast. White Persians are certainly beautiful and we can see why they are so popular!<\/p>\n

\n

2. Black<\/h3>\n

Black is another Persian coat color, and black Persians<\/a> usually have golden eyes. Black Persians can look pure black or can have a brown tint to their coat when the sun hits it. Bobbie the Persian of TikTok is probably one of the most famous black Persians.<\/p>\n

\n

3. Blue<\/h3>\n

Blue Persians aren\u2019t really blue, but are actually gray in color. The exact shade of gray (or rather, blue) can range from lighter to darker, but most blue Persians have golden or slate-colored eyes. This is another really common Persian color.<\/p>\n

\n

4. Chocolate<\/h3>\n

Chocolate Persians are brown in color, as you can probably guess from the name. Brown is a rarer color in all cats, so you don\u2019t often see chocolate Persians, but they do exist. Chocolate Persians often have golden eyes, and again, the shade of brown can be lighter or darker.<\/p>\n

\n

5. Cream<\/h3>\n

Cream Persians are darker than pure white but lighter than red. Some of them can look off-white, while others can be closer to a dilute orange color, kind of like a creamsicle. They usually have greenish or golden eyes, and they may be cream all over or have cream patches with white mixed in.<\/p>\n

6. Lilac<\/h3>\n
