A part of the documentary series of video's produced by me for demystifying the myth that "Doll faced Persian Cats" require the ultimate luxury to be kept as pets in hot humid climatic conditions ,typical in Mumbai City.Persian cat Matahari has lived her life in "Non-A/C temperatures" and yet produced a superb coat upto kitten-hood age of 8 to 10 months after which she shed her "under-coat".She was later mated at the age of 18 months and after a gestation of 67 days, the longest for cats, she delivered 6 kittens whose delivery i assisted by severing the umbilical cords since she was too confused to do the same, just dropping the kittens onto the house floor. All 6 kittens matured into kitten-hood and are 59 days old,brought up under natural conditions.Their photographs as well as Queen cat's Matahari can be viewed on "wikipedia commons" under "Persian cats" as well as in the "search engines" under "Cat Matahari".
If Rudolph.A.Furtado can breed "Doll - Faced Persian Kittens" of "International breed standards" in a small apartment in Mumbai then can any cat fancier could do the same, ?Yes, only, it requires dedication, patience ,luck and a genuine love for animals and animal welfare.
REMEMBER ,PETS ARE ALWAYS NON-JUDGMENTAL UNLIKE OUR FELLOW HUMANS,HENCE,THE GREATEST NATURAL 'STRESS BUSTERS'.
