The Toyger Cat





 

Mr Mo Tibbs

Illustration By Donna Massa   2006

I am a true cat lover.  I’ve had many cats in my life and they have brought me sorrow and given me great joy!  Mr Mo Tibbs is a name I gave to this Toyger cat.  This is not one of my cats I chose this Toyger cat to be in this illustration.  Toyger cats have their own identity in the cat world.  These affectionate cats are intelligent, loving, and have a wild tiger like personality.  Owners of these cats say they can be occasionally aloof, often mysterious, whimsical and even a little magical.  They are relatively active, playful, and friendly.  Their body has the base color of pumpkin, with its trademark stripes of black or dark brown.  The markings across the body hold a completely unique pattern to each cat, no other cat has the same identical markings even from the same litter, I find this aspect amazing.  


The Toyger has an excellent disposition and can get along with any other cat or cats you may have at home.  But, like most cats the owners need to keep them occupied if they don’t want them to become too mischievous or curious which can lead them into trouble.  


If your thinking of getting one of these cats it’s important to work a breeder.  Search the TICA database by name for the right breeders.  This way you know the history of the parents, and that they have been screened for any of the possible feline disorders.   


In closing, all cats are special they are wonderful company, loyal companions and respond to love, affection and attention.  They say when having a pet people in life usually live longer…
