the answer is no, not all of them will definately be long haired some may be unless the father is long haired too.

Re: Half Persian Kittens Will they be long haired?

If the father is longhaired, then all of the kittens will be longhaired, because the mum is Persian. But if he is shorthaired and carries a gene for longhaired, you can expect half the litter to be longhaired. If he is shorthaired and doesn't carry the LH gene, then all the babies will be shorthaired.

Re: Half Persian Kittens Will they be long haired?

Looking at the pics my guess will be shorthaired.

Unless the father was longhaired or had a longhaired parent he will not carry the longhaired gene and as it is recessive there is much chance of them being shorthaired.

My Birman had a litter with a moggie and they were all shorthaired although they did not survive

We think the Black and White is a girl. She doesnt have a name yet but shes a lovely character she is really vocal, twice as loud as the other two and is the one who is always off around the house exploring and playing with her auntie!
