Cat fanciers are
enjoying a resurgence of a delightful breed once thought
to be extinct — the Turkish Angora. In recent years,
due to new importation from Turkey, the breed's country
of origin, the Turkish Angora has again taken its place
in the roster of the pedigreed cats of the world.
Many people have
used the term Angora to signify any longhaired cat.
However, the only pedigreed cats that carry the name
"Angora" are the Turkish Angora. In the early
part of this century, the Angora was used
indiscriminately in breedings with Persians, finally
disappearing from the scene as it became incorporated
with that breed, known for a time simply as ‘Longhairs.'
The Turkish Angora
is a pure, natural breed of cat, originating probably
from the Manul cat domesticated by the Tartars. They
migrated eventually to Turkey, where they are regarded
today with great reverence, as one of their national
treasures. In 1962, the Angora was rediscovered by
American servicemen in the Ankara Zoo in Ankara, Turkey,
in a controlled breeding program dating back forty-five
years. CFA only accepts for registration those Turkish
Angoras whose ancestry can be traced back to Turkey
