Turkish Van
Originating from the rugged terrain of the Middle East, Turkish Van cats are showstoppers renowned for their distinctive appearance. They boast a pure-white body contrasted by vibrant markings on their head and tail. Their unique eye color is often a mix of blue and amber, and their semi-long coat is soft and silky. Another unique characteristic of the Turkish Van cat is that they take three to five years to reach their full size and maturity.
