Yyyyeeahhh...but that particular one has very pronounced Persian facial features. Although the breed is considered Persian, facial features in Himalayans aren’t necessarily so markedly Persian, and the faces of many betray little of their Persian heritage; often evidencing far more of the Siamese side of the breed. Also, the chocolate points characteristic of Himalayans are very muted in this specimen, and the usual blue eyes are not in evidence at all.
Google “himalayan cat” and you’ll at least one other picture of this particular cat, as well as the full gamut of representatives of the Himalayan breed; with facial features varying from quite Persian to not at all Persian, but most all with much more color.
