The Toyger is a designer cat. It is designed and bred
with the demands of modern city life as a human companion foremost
in mind. Its glittered, pelted and dramatic pattern appeals to people
while the laid back, easily trained character of these cats make them a
joy to live with.
The Toyger cat is a medium sized, short haired domestic cat reminescent
of a toy tiger. Designed with a modern city life with humans in mind, it
is an intelligent and willing companion animal, active and highly trainable.
Color and markings are that of a satin toy while type suggests a big cat---long
bodied and tailed, large boned and muscular, round ears, large chin-leading
muzzle with broad nose tip. This cat will one day resemble a tiny, shiny
toy tiger on leash or playing with the kids.
The Toyger is a breed in development. Recognized by TICA for Registration
Only early in the 1990s and Preliminary New Breed in 2000, they are lovely even
now. The goals for the breed are long-term and the prospect is even more exciting!
Several of the features proposed have never before been recognized as possible
in a domestic cat. Progress is steady in all areas from companionability
to appearance. The Toyger showed in its new TICA status of Advanced
New Breed in May 2006.
Characteristics of Toygers are:
Circular tiger-like face markings between the ears and eyes.
Very dense dark orange coat with black stripes over the back and down the sides.
Ears are small and round and are set as much on the side of the head as on top.
Eyes are small and circular with gentle hooding of the upper inside quadrant.
A strong chin wider than the nose leather.
A long straight nose with leather.
A long and muscular neck.
A rope-like tail with striped markings and a black cap at the end.
