Pixie-Bob

Description / History     

Pixie-Bobs now registered with T.I.C.A. as a domestic breed, having been DNA tested for wild genes, and found to display none. After 13 years, the cats are perfect pets, being non-destructive and as easy to care for as any other domestic. Since males run from 16 to 22 pounds, average, (depending upon the bloodline) with females usually being 1/2 that weight, they fit into the mold of what is considered a good sized housecat. They are extremely quiet, having only an occasional chirp or chitter to offer, but have often been referred to as "dogs in disguise", as they are easily trained and remarkably courageous. Loving and very devoted, they prefer to be with their owners at all times, even traveling in the car, on a shoulder or the dashboard.

It is the goal of Carol Ann Brewer, the Founding Board and the Pixie-Bob Association to see these cats, whom we believe have existed on their own for centuries in North America, appreciated for their wild beauty and the extreme pleasure they offer mankind. Intelligent beyond belief and forever entertaining, they are absolutely guaranteed to change your life! Once you are owned by a Pixie-Bob, nothing else will ever do!
