The LaPerm Longhair is a small to medium cat, weighing five to eight pounds at maturity, which is usually two to three years old. They have an athletic yet elegant build, and their thick, woolly coats typically make them appear bigger than they are. LaPerms have slightly rounded heads with expressive eyes that can be any colour.
Interestingly, LaPerms are usually born bald or short haired, and they gradually develop their long coat as they grow. By the time they reach maturity, they will sport a combination of soft waves, curls, and ringlets, resembling a shaggy perm that feels soft to the touch. However, some LaPerms do not develop ringlets and maintain a straight coat instead.
Most longhaired LaPerms will have looser curls around the body, tighter ringlets around the neck and ears and a curly plumed tail. Their fur can be any colour or pattern, but tabbies, calicos and tortoiseshells are common. Furthermore, they often have curled whiskers.
The longhaired LaPerm’s curly coat is not too difficult to care for, but you do need to brush or comb it multiple times a week to prevent tangling or matting. After brushing, you can spray a little water to set the curls. You should not need to bathe them, but if you do, towel-dry them instead of using a hairdryer, which will create frizziness.
The LaPerm Longhair is an affectionate and playful kitty. They have an inquisitive nature and a clownish sense of humour. They are pretty smart and can figure out things like opening doors, which can sometimes cause mischief. They love to be up high and always look for something to climb, so don’t be surprised if they clamber up onto your shoulder!
LaPerms are super affectionate and like being in the same space as their owners but do not display neediness. So whether you’re cooking, on your laptop, or watching a movie, your LaPerm will likely be with you. They do not meow a great deal, but they have deep purrs that promote comfort and relaxation.
Provided they receive sufficient socialisation as kittens, LaPerms grow to be very friendly and at ease around strangers. Likewise, they do not feel fearful in the presence of children, so they make good family pets. Furthermore, as they descend from barn cats, these felines have a strong prey drive and love to hunt.
LaPerm Longhairs will also be around as they prefer to be with their owners than off doing their own thing. Because they love to play and hunt, they will need plenty of toys, cat trees and high platforms to keep them happy. They are also content spending most or all their time indoors, making them a good choice for those living in apartments.
Their easygoing nature also means they get along well with children and other pets. In fact, as they love to play, they welcome any playmate, whether it’s a tiny human, feline, or canine. Moreover, as they don’t particularly like to be alone, it’s best to have a furry friend for them to grow up around if you work long hours.

Neo
Russian Blue
We had some concerns purchasing a kitten online but our experience with The Pedigree Paws was great. They connected us with Caroline, the Russian Blue breeder and we had many conversations and received multiple pictures and videos. She answered to all our questions.
The Pedigree Paws verified for us all the vaccinations and health checks to make sure our new kitten was 100% healthy.
Thank you for all your help The Pedigree Paws! Highly recommended!
Jack
Miniature Dachshund
One of the reasons I was hesitant to order a puppy from The Pedigree Paws is because I live in Spain. However they connected me with a very good FCI breeder in Barcelona.
He showed me all the health documents of both parents, their pedigree and answer to all my questions. I am so happy they helped me to find a healthy puppy as finding one by myself was very overwhelming. Contacting The Pedigree Paws was the best decision and I highly recommend them to everybody!

Athena
Chihuahua
It's been a few months since we decided to find a Chihuahua puppy to join our family, however we had issues finding a good breeder.
We contacted The Pedigree Paws and they connected us with a very unique breeder in Greece. Many videos and pictures were shown, the breeder shared with us the proof of vaccinations, deworming and her 5 generation pedigree. We were fortunate as George, the breeder was able to deliver the puppy to us personally. We are very pleased with our beautiful Athena. Thank you, The Pedigree Paws, for being truthful and transparent.
