Carter Cat (Definite Introduction)
The Carter Cat has a long history and the origin of the breed. In various ways, it is said that Carter's short wool-like fur was sold as Minase fur in ancient times! Modernly speaking, the Carter cat originated in France, also known as the missionary blue cat, and has existed in France for centuries.
It is said that CARTHUSIAN priests brought Carter cats back from South Africa and bred these cats. So what is the origin of this species? Some people think that its name reflects its deep, woolly texture, which resembles a Spanish wool fiber called Chartreux; others, such as FIZNIGER, hypothesize that it is a hybrid descendant of Manuel cats and Egyptian cats. In fact, the Carter cat's ancestors may have originated in the mountains of Iran, Syria and Türkiye, where the harsh environment required it to have a thick coat. Some Carter cats were introduced to France during the Crusades.
In France, although cats that can catch mice are very popular with farmers, in order to maintain the shiny coat of the Carter cat, it is not bred as a mouse-hunting cat. Instead, it is often used as a mouse-hunting cat. In captivity, it was not until the 1970s that its lineage spread to the United States. Very few exist.
