A TOUCH OF WILD......

The Cheetoh comes from the crossing of the Ocicat and the Bengal Cat. The Cheetoh has true jungle lineage from the Asian Leopard Cat and is a very muscular cat that is athletic, graceful and lithe. The Cheetoh has a stalking, low-shoulder walk that is common both in the Ocicat and the wild jungle cats, but is not typically exhibited ion other domestic cats. The spotted and/or rosette spotted appearance with the large eyes and ears, enhances this distinctive wild look. The coat of the Cheetoh, sleek and shiny, is another of its distinguishing attributes. The fur is very short and thick, yet soft and velvety and is quite similar in nature to the fur of the jungle cats.

The Cheetoh, though demonstrating a very fierce appearance, is at all times an incredibly social and loving cat, never aloof or showing any tendancies towards aggressive or standoffish behavior. The males exhibit definite maternal characteristics towards kittens and younger cats, never being hostile or antagonistic, mannerism exclusive to the Ocicat and very rarely seen in other feline breeds. The gentle and mild-mannered temperment is a dependable character trait of the Cheetoh. This cat is also intelligent and curios, often demonstrating an un-feline sense of humor.
