Toygers mini hunters  | | Tiger Tiger burning bright in the house at the middle of the night, can you cuddle and can you play can you sit beside me and stay... You must be wondering what I'm talking about right? well what if I told you that there is a new breed of cat that looks like a little tiger wouldnt you want to see one?Better yet wouldnt you want one?Well there is such a breed called the Toyger "Toy Tiger" the result of a mix between the best stripped Tabby cat "Scrap Metal" and a Bengal cat "Rumple Spotskin"This was the vision of one Judy Sugden during the latter part of the 1980's, she wanted to breed a cat that looked like a tiger but the temperment of a sweet house cat. The first few attempts of the breed created what is called a braided tabby, the marking came out to be stripes over a dark mahogany background. The first of these was EEYAA's Tres Ves, the cat had the color and pattern that made it look like a miniature tiger but not the good temperment that Judy wanted. The next and up until now the unsurpassed "War Whoop" of Judy is the first real Toyger, the best looking toyger you have ever seen, with stripes and color that will make you think that this tiger has shrunk!Today the breeders of this new breed are still developing the Toyger, it has already been recognized by the Cat Association. The little Toygers even move like the tiger with its signature gait and walk. If you would like to know more of this new exciting breed, go to their association website. www.toygers.org
