• Coat Maintenance;
• Eye Cleaning;

• Teeth;
• Ear Cleaning; and
• Bathing

Almost all Persian cats can have tearing of the eyes and if left unchecked the tears can stain the coat around the cat's eyes a red or "rust" color. The first thing to do is gather the right tools to combat eye stains on a Persian.

• PinkPawPal Eye and Facial Cleansing Solution;
• PinkPawPal Wink-Eye Powder

Quilted cotton make-up pads for wiping the cat's eyes should be used. These pads can be found at your local drug store. Do not get the ones that have a lot of fluffy cotton-like fibers as they will get in the cat's eyes and cause irritation.
