This is the shorthaired counterpart of the Blue-cream Persian. Similarly, almost all are females. The few males that do survive are sterile. The breed is produced by mating a shorthaired Blue with a shorthaired Cream. As in the longhaired breed, the British show regulations call for a totally "misty" coat- a complete mingling of the two shades. In the United States the coat must have patches of the two colors. In both the coat must be soft, never coarse or wiry. The eyes may be coppery or orange. Green is not accepted for shows.

This attractive breed also makes an excellent and devoted pet, not uncommonly becoming attached to a particular member of the household almost to the exclusion of others. It has the unusual habit of dipping or scooping its food from its bowl with its paw, and also prefers drinking from a dripping hose or faucet to drinking from a bowl. A litter produced by a Blue-cream can be a surprise of color combinations because of the female's genetic mixture.
