One of the most frequent questions I was asked as a Persian cat breeder is, "how often should I bathe my Persian?"  Really, there are many possible answers to this question. There is so much information that should be consider when grooming your Persian than just how often to brush or comb and how often to bathe.

Given all the information there are many factors that play a role in how often your Persian should be bathed, such as your brushing and/or combing habits, your Persians eating habits, their personal hygiene, type of hair/coat they are genetically predisposed to, overall health and environmental and geographical factors.

For more information on specific factors that affect your Persians coat, hair/coat types, grooming, dematting, degreasing and bath preparation please read the following articles.
