* The cats in ''Literature/VarjakPaw'' make it sound like Mesopotamia Blue's are an ancient breed of cat, however the wording implies that they've only existed for under a century. Jalal, the ancestor of the breed, moved into Contessa's house himself. Contessa is an elderly woman who is implied to have died at the start of the first book. * There's some implications of RoyalInbreeding in ''Literature/VarjakPaw''. as Contessa seems like the only Mesopotamian Blue breeder. It's worth noting that cat breeds tend to start off with a lot of inbreeding.
