SHORT HAIRED CATS

SHORT-HAIRED BI-COLOURED

First established in the 1880s, and having been exhibited for many years under ‘Any other variety’, this variety has recently been given a breed number. The exacting standard is the same as that required for the Long-hairs, being very difficult to produce. They will be most useful in the breeding of Tortoiseshells and Tortie-and-whites, where no male of those breeds is available. The type must be British; that is a round head, a powerful body, and short thick tail.

clear and evenly distributed. Not more than two-thirds of
