Thats got to be one of the cutest kittens I ever saw. Not that the others are anything other cute, but the black and white is just ridiculously cute.

Re: Half Persian Kittens Will they be long haired?

They would probably be semi longhaired I think. Like a ragamuffin. I saw your babies on the pets 4 homes site. I have to admite to being tempted but I have just taken on a ragamuffin baby..

Genetics doesn't work quite like that, i.e. "short hair x long hair = semi-longhair" in the same way that breeding a white cat with a black cat will not give you grey cats!

Quite true. But there is some sort of incomplete dominance involved because there is no doubt that a very shorthaired cat crossed with a longhair gives you shorthair kittens but nowhere near as short as the shorthair you started with - the Asian breeding programme has shown that up very clearly.
