A Raw diet (including muscle meat, ograns and bone) is the best food for a cat or kitten as this mimicks what a cat would eat in the wild and provides nutrients in the most natural way possible.
If a raw diet cannot be given, however, commercial cat food can be fed. In general, the best prepared cat foods are the ones with a very high, named-meat content. They should be labeled by source, such as: Chicken, Turkey, Rabbit, Lamb, Tuna, etc., as the first, or second ingredient. Reject brands with ingredients such as Grain, Corn, Wheat Gluten, Cereals and Various Sugars as these ingredients have very little or no nutritional value for cats. Wet foods are often much easier to find than dry foods with these specifications.
The amount of moisture in cat food is also very important, if not one of the most important part of a cat's diet. Dry food contains no moisture, so is quite dehydrating. Cats are notoriously bad drinkers, even when they are thirsty. This is because they have evolved to get all their needed moisture from their prey (their ancestors were cats that lived in very dry and arid environments where water was hard to come by), so therefore have a low "thirst drive" and will not often seek out water on their own. This is a trait that has been passed down over the thousands of years.
Canned or pouched food has anywhere between 60 to 80% water. Seeing as in the wild a cat's prey is around 65%-75% water, wet food provides a cat with more than enough water each day.
Many brands of dry food, including but not limited to; Purina, Friskies, Whiskas, IAMS, Science Diet, etc., regardless of price, contain high concentrations of carbohydrates, or fillers; such as corns, grains, and cereals. Cats can't digest these, and often gets stored as fat or expelled. These fillers are used instead of meat because, compared to meat, it is less costly, and helps to hold the kibble together. However, some high quality dry food brands such as Orijen, Innova and Applaws are free of grains and cereals.
Cats need meat-based protein, not plant-based protein. Cats will often overeat on lower quality foods because they are not getting all the nutrients they need, which can result in obesity and other health problems (meaning a shorter life span).
Lastly, the notion that dry food cleans a cat's teeth has not been proven. Kibble is hard and brittle, so it shatters at the tips of the teeth - providing little or no cleaning friction. Dental issues usually start at or under the gum line, so kibble is usually ineffective. Some cats don't even chew; they will just swallow the kibble whole. However, some cats will have perfect teeth while the dental health in others will deteriorate, no matter what food they eat. If a cat's teeth are to last through its lifetime, it requires regular dental care.
For high-quality Cat food there is: Blue Buffalo, Felidae, Weruva, California Natural, Instinct, Prairie, Natural Balance, Eagle Pack, Wellness, EVO, Grau, Animonda Carny, Bozita, HiLife, Feline Fayre, to name a few.
Dry cat food in combination with a meat diet is good. Here is a recipe for the meat diet.
Recipes Ingredients: * 10 lbs chicken legs and thighs trim excess fat off leave skin (large plastic bags can be found at most local grocers) * 5 lbs chicken breast, w/ bone * 1 lb chicken livers * 1lb chicken hearts and gizzards (these can be found at Wal-Mart, if you have trouble locating these you can leave them out) * 1 1/2 cups of dry brown rice (cooked according to recipe) * 4 large cooked carrots OR 1 sweet potato and 2 large carrots * Kitty Bloom vitamins with tuarine (this is a must for if used as a daily recipe, product can be found here)* 5 raw eggs can cook whites * ½ cup milled flax seed (usually in with the flour) * 1 can pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix, "pure Pumpkin") * 2 pkgs unflavored Gelatin dissolved in 1 cup water (optional) * salmon oil (optional)
Directions: # Cut raw chicken into pieces small enough to go into meat grinder. # Cook vegetables and use the veggie juice when cooking the rice so the vitamins transfer to the rice. Add extra water if needed. # Grind meat, bones, and add some of the rice and then some carrots, alternating until all the rice and carrots are mixed in # Stir in gelatin, eggs, milled flax seed, salmon oil, pumpkin # Divide into daily portions freeze for at least 48 hours (this kills bacteria) # Warm in microwave until warm but not cooked, although edges can be slightly cooked # Mix in Kitty Bloom vitamin supplements # Throw away any food not consumed within 45 minutes This is from http://www.buffalocreekfarms.net/persiancatsfood.php
Persian cats usually like a variety of food choices. When feeding your Persian cat make sure you give him/her different flavor foods at least every month or too.My Persian cat eats Purina dry food and Fancy Feast wet food and loves it!:)
Whatever it feels like eating. Sounds like a flip answer, but cats will only eat food they like. Some Persians will eat anything including dog food. Others are real finicky.
I've had three persian cats in my life and water is the best thing to give them. giving them milk can make them act differently.
Any kind you give it. Cat food is not sold for breeds, but for any cat.

NO! Cats do not feel such emotions as racism, and if one cat doesn't like a Persian cat there is another reason.
Flat faced Persians have very flat noses, but doll faced Persian cats have less flat noses. Compared to other types of cats though, even doll faced Persian cats have flat noses.

Yes, Persian cats can have blue eyes. Eye colors in Persian cats include blue, copper, green, hazel, and odd-eyed (two colored eyes, i.e. one blue, one copper).
