A "Doll Face Himalayan" is not a recognized cat breed or a distinct variety within the Himalayan Doll Face Cat breed. Instead, the term "Himalayan Doll Face Cat" is used to describe a certain facial appearance in some cats, particularly in Persian cats, including the Himalayan Persian.
As mentioned earlier, the term "Doll Face" is used to distinguish a more traditional facial structure in Persian cats compared to the more extreme flat-faced appearance found in some modern Persian lines. Doll-faced Persians, including Himalayans, have a more natural and balanced facial structure with a regular-length nose, round and large eyes, full cheeks, and a regular jaw.
In contrast, some modern Persian lines have been bred for an extreme flat-faced appearance, known as "brachycephalic" features, which can lead to health issues like respiratory problems, dental malocclusions, and tear duct issues.
It's important to note that the term "Doll Face" is not recognized or distinguished by major cat associations like TICA or CFA, but it is used by breeders and enthusiasts to describe certain Persian cats with more traditional facial features. Responsible breeders focus on breeding healthy cats with good temperaments, regardless of facial appearance, to ensure the well-being of the cats. |
