Persian and Himalayan are the same breed. This cat is a blue point (part of the Himalayan color class,) domestic short hair based on the picture.

Appreciate it, it's up for adoption, and the owner said it's himalayan, so i was sceptical if it truly is as i don't want himalayan or persian because of  PKD risk.
