Simply gorgeous
Also be prepared that friends visiting your house will pay more attention to your cat, than to you. Especially, if you have a pure white fur beauty with blue or mismatching eyes, as Turkish sultans used to have. Odd eye color is very common for this breed; it gives the cat a rare alien look.

If you want some color
Although, not all angora cats are white, as they used to be in old times. Many years of breeding have passed, so now you may find plenty of different solid tints, as well as tabby, tortoiseshell, calico or other patterns. Still, large eyes and ears make this breed visible among the other cats.
