Unless we put the Persian cats into particular category it will be impossible to recognize them as in recent times they are coming with a blend of different color coats.

To make it uncomplicated the Persian cats have been categorized on the basis of their coat color. You can see from the examples here as to how they are called, Silver Shadowed, Golden Shadowed, and Cameo Shaded and of course Red Persian cats.

The majority of the Persian cats are white with usually layers of different colors on just the tips of the coat which is technically known as ticking. But as there is a lot of mixed breeding the coats of the cats can evolve into totally different colors like blue-cream.

Pure white albino Persian cats are very uncommon and you will see Persian cats with red coats just like ordinary cats. The shade of red that you find in the Persian variety is not a pure shade of red which you may assume but it is more on the shades of orange or ginger with variation. You will find hints of brown or white on the tips or all red. Most of the red Persian cats however have a red coat all over.

The lips and chin of the cat are the same color as that of the hair. Its paw pads and nose leather is a brick red color and unlike Silver Shaded and Chinchilla Persian cats whose eye color is either green or blue-green, the Red Persians eye color is of a brilliant copper color. But it does, like the other Persian cats, have the blackened rimmed eyes that give off an impression as if the cat is wearing eye makeup.

Most of the times the red color does not occur in isolation and is accompanied by patches of cream, white and cameo. The diversity of colors that occur on a Persian cat could be understood when you see a Smoked Tortoiseshell Persian which has a white under coat with prominent black tip intermingled with red and cream ticking too which gives an impression of a tortoiseshell.

Along with the captivating patterns that occurs in this breed of Persian cat, there is sometimes present the blaze of red color or cream tipping on the face which is liked by many people.

You will see that most of the breeds of Persian cats like Shaded, Golden Shaded or Chinchilla have eyes shaded green or blue green. Only the Tortoiseshell Persian cat and the Red colored cat families have eyes that are of brilliant copper colored.

The only difference that you will find in Red Persian cats is that they have fluffier and longer mane but as far as other physical characteristics are concerned like punched face, short and bulky legs, solid body, dark rimmed eyes are similar to the other Persian breeds. The chin and lips have similar shade as its coat.
