No. The 'Himalayan or Persian shed a great deal and their coat can get very long and easily mats without daily grooming. By contrast, the Traditional Balinese shed very little and their coat is usually no longer than 2 to 2 1/2 inches and does not mat, making grooming requirements minimal. According to "Encyclopedia of Cat Breeds" By J. Anne Helgren (which offers comparative evaluations of various traits of various breeds) lists Persians and Himalayans as a '10' on a scale of 1-10 regarding 'need for grooming' and the Balinese a '4' on a scale of 1-10. Only short-haired cats require less grooming, the Siamese and Tonkinese being listed as a '2'.
