We have a white Persian that we bought years ago from someone who could no longer keep him. He's about 12 years old now, and has a wonderful temperment. While we love him to death, and especially love looking at him because he's so beautiful-I won't get another long-haired cat, simply because I like having a clean house. We also have an elderly cocker-spaniel that we got from Cocker rescue two years ago. He's more trouble, and expensive, as far as health issues go, but he's not the one making me vaccuum several times a week!! Persians REALLY shed!! And they do cough up a lot of hairballs because of the long fur.
