Top health risks for Miami Persians

Florida environmental triggers for Persians

  • Brachycephalic + Florida heat = exercise intolerance + airway stress
  • Humidity worsens tear staining and skin fold dermatitis
  • PKD screening especially important — autosomal dominant
  • Long coat + heat = mat formation, hairballs, overgrooming
  • Cardiac surveillance for HCM also critical

Common breed predispositions in Persians

Lifespan: 12-17 years • Size: Medium

  • Brachycephalic airway syndrome
  • Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) — autosomal dominant breed risk
