| | Himalayans |
 | | After years of effort, research, and breeding, in England, Canada, and the United States, the Himalayan, or colorpoint Persian, was named an official breed in 1958 by the American Cat Fanciers Association, and accepted in championship competitions. |
 | | Like Persians and Siamese, however, Himalayans are grouped into categories according to the colors of their points, and there are many different accepted colors and varieties. |
 | | The Himalayan is friendly and affectionate, occasionally showing some of the mischievous leanings of their Siamese side. |
