Description of Oriental Longhair Cat Breed
The Oriental Longhair is still considered rare, but the breed has fans and is gaining in popularity. The Oriental Longhair breed appeals to the cat lover who wants the Siamese type cat with the semi-long wash-and-wear hair of the Balinese and the rainbow of colors of the Oriental Shorthair. Most breeders who work with the Oriental Longhair also work with the Oriental Shorthair, and often with the Siamese or one or more of the other Siamese-derived breeds as well.
The Oriental Longhairs lack the downy undercoat that easily mats, therefore they do not require frequent grooming.
Pricing on Oriental Longhairs varies from breeder to breeder but generally the pricing on an Oriental Longhairs depends on type, applicable markings and bloodlines.
Typically breeders of all breeds of kittens release their kittens somewhere between twelve and sixteen weeks of age. The reasoning behind keeping a kitten until after twelve weeks is that kittens have had their basic inoculations. This gives them time to develop the physical and social stability needed to make a smooth transition into their new environment. It is never recommended that a breeder release a kitten before twelve weeks of age as the kittens need this time to develop properly. Releasing a kitten prior to twelve weeks of age is against the law in many states. It is also recommended that you keep all pedigreed cats and kittens indoors and that they be spayed or neutered. Cats and kittens of all ages also need suitable surfaces for scratching, such as scratching posts. Scratching is a natural behavior of the cat breed and declawing a cat is not recommended and is not accepted by the Cat Fanciers Association.
