Description:
LaPerm, meaning wavy or rippled. The La Perms coat comes in two
varieties, long and short. The curls can range from wavy to
long corkscrew curls. Another unique trait of this loving breed
is that quite often the kittens go completely bald.
LaPerm's are a very active breed, but unlike
most other active breeds the LaPerm is also very happy to be
a lap
cat. They are a very affectionate and loving breed needing
human companionship. They like their people so much that they
will purr as soon as they notice your around.
Being very intelligent a LaPerm can be taught
to fetch and loves the play time.
