Description
The Turkish Angora is a semi-longhaired cat that originated in Turkey. Cats from a breeding program in the Ankara Zoo were brought back to the United States in 1962, kindling interest in this ancient breed.
They are long-bodied and graceful with a fine, silky coat. Although white is the most well-known color, they come in a variety of additional colors and patterns.
This breed is intelligent and quick-witted, as well as active and agile. "Turkeys" can be very opinionated and stubborn; it is difficult to change their minds once they have formed an idea. Those who live with them claim that Turks are one of the only breeds with a sense of humor. They need active play and can become bored if left alone for long periods of time.
They are not large cats, averaging between 5 and 9 pounds. Like almost all other breeds, of cat, females tend to be smaller than males.
Some Turkish Angora breeders import cats from Turkey, where they are still highly prized. Such new blood is an important source of outcrosses for this remarkable and beautiful breed. A breeder advertising "imported lines" usually means they are using foundation stock from Turkey.
Associations: The Turkish Angora is accepted by most major cat registries. In GCCF, the breed "Angora" not a Turkish Angora, but is more similar to the breed known as Oriental Longhair in the United States.

turkish cats have bushy moustaches and smell of kebabs, thats all you need to know
That doesn't sound weird, its well within the normal range of cat behaviour. Just google for Turkish cats and you'll get loads of specialist sites.
Cats are (help me!) independant. You are their servant. (my cat)You (is) must (making me) give in to (say this) their demands.
He is very much a typical Turkish, except that they are usually friendly. Pet him and talk to him as much as possib le, because it sounds like he has had a "fashion" owner---these people are not cat-lovers, they just want a fashionable pet, and have no idea about loving the poor animal, which usually ends up being neglected or dumped. It will take time to gain his trust. If he wants to be indoors all the time, he may have lived in a flat and not understand the concept of outside, or maybe he is just afraid. If he wants to live indoors, let him. Buy him catnip leaves, and catnip toys, and table tennis balls. He does love you really, but doesnt know how to show it! Note that the Turkish Van cat is much larger than the T.Angora, and a different character.
i know most of the turkish cats are deaf..especially white ones and different color eyes..
