They can live up to twenty years, and in some cases, even a few years longer. Mine is 19 years old.
The average lifespan of Himalayan cats is 15 years or more. Despite generally living long lives, they are genetically predisposed to quite a few health problems.
Some interesting qualities of the Himalayan cat are its long fur and 'flat' or pushed-in face. The breed also comes in many points- certain colors. The points are chocolate point, flame point, tortie-cream point, lilac point, blue point, seal point, and much more. It was first 'produced' in the 1950s, when crossing a Siamese cat with a Persian cat.
it can live to about a couple of days
A cat cannot live long on water only, but just how long depends on the condition of the cat. Most cats can live about a week or two with only water, but it can trigger a fatty liver condition when they begin eating again, which can kill them.
A domestic cat can live with the disease FIV for several years.
The gene that controls the Himalayan trait in guinea pigs is recessive, similar to albinism. If you breed a Himalayan guinea pig to any other color of pig, none of the progeny will have the Himalayan phenotype (look Himalayan). To get a Himalayan you must breed to another Himalayan. Long story short; all Himalayans have red eyes.
they can live a normal cat life span unless they have a disease or sickness.
A Himalayan cat...
Himalayan.
A Himalayan cat is a very similar cat to a Persian cat. It has long white hair and blue eyes, it has been domesticated and it is a very good household pet.
Himalayan cats are beautiful felines that have long hair and often feature the blue eyes and point coloring of the Siamese cat. They are often called Himalayan Persians or Colorpoint Persians because they are a subgroup of the Persian cat family.

Sassy, the cat in the Homeward Bound movie, was a Himalayan cat.

Sassy. And that is not a Siamese cat it is a Himalayan cat.
Himilayan cat is a type of Persian cat that was bred down by the Persians and only has seal point colors; for example Siamese. On the other hand a Persian cat would have other color patterns. So the difference is based on the patterns.
Individual cat's temperment will vary, but overall himalayans do not have that much of a temper. My Himalayan is such a sweetie!
