Breed: Singapura

One of the smallest domestic cats, the Singapura has disputed origins. One story is that it was discovered on the streets of Singapore and that all registered cats are descended from street cats imported into North America. Others hold that the breeders created the Singapura by crossing an Abyssinian with a Burmese. Whatever its true origins, the Singapura is a very attractive cat. Its short, sleek coat only comes in one colour- Sepia Agouti, with brown tabby ticking on an ivory background across most of its body, a pale stomach, chest and muzzle and tabby markings on the face and legs. It is quiet, affectionate cat but full of energy, and it craves human companionship so does not like being left alone.
