The majority of the Persian cats are white with generally layers of different colors on just the tips of the coat which is technically known as ticking. But as there is a lot of mixed breeding the coats of the cats can develop into totally different colors like blue-cream.
Likewise another color that has evolved for the Persian cat is red which now accepted is to be the color that occurs in normal cats unlike albino whites which are considered very rare. It is not a vivid screaming red, rather an almost orange or rather ginger color, which can vary.
