I adopted a 5 yr old Turkish Angora. She is white with one blue and one gold eye. They say on here (the video) that they don't need much grooming, however, my Lilly sheds like crazy leaving the chair she claimed as her 'throne' white. Also I find balls of fur everywhere lol. Well I also have two black British Bombay cats and one Black and White long hair cat and they shed a lot less. Other than that, she is the best kitty ever. She licks you and hugs you and she loves to what I call 'Happy Paw' for confort. She def. took charge over the other cats as the Alpha cat. LOVE this breed, just wish the fur would stop flying. ahhahah!

I have 2 right now I took in because if I didn't take them they would have given them to a farm and they were too little to survive winter outside. They're brother and sister born in August of 09 they love to cuddle and sit on your lap. One time I woke up and Miyu was in my arms like a teddy bear. I just weighed my cats and I was shocked Buzz is almost 3 pounds bigger than his sister she's about 6 and he's about 9 pounds, she's so skinny her legs look so twiggy compared to his muscular build. (This is my first female cat and my family seems to think its because females are supposed to be smaller than males. Also they are both fixed and males tend to weigh more if you're not careful after they're fixed.) Miyu thinks she's a princess and when you correct her for doing something she knows not to do she tilts her head and looks at you with this expression that says "Who me? No! This is the face of an angel!" and she will rub against you so you get your guard down and then she goes right back to doing what you stopped her from doing.

Tonks are mystical, adventurous, goofy, thoughtful, loving, interactive and just plain wonderful! I love reading all these people's comments about how their Tonks have affected their lives. I can't see being without one!

Pretty good story, but the price information is somewhat out of date. As in way low. I have been breeding Tonks for many years, and last year (2012)we lost too much money selling them for $600 each. We only want to break even--we are a tiny, closed, non-show but still pedigree cattery, and I'm not posting our web site, 'cause this isn't about advertising. Plus, our wait list is already getting too long. :) We get a lot of people from both coasts, and oddly enough, Chicago too, where the price for a pedigree Tonk runs $1K - $2K, and the sky can be the limit. BTW, my very first Tonkinese lived to be 23 years old! In my experience, the more sturdily, stockier built cats tend to be healthier and live longer. If anyone knows of an actual pedigree Tonkinese kitten for only $400 I would definitely like to hear about it. (at least 6 generations Tonk only; mating a Burmese & Siamese does not meet the current definition) Thanks and good wishes to all!

I just accuired an Ocicat by accident. Someone left him behind and he wandered up to my folks place. Starved for food and attention. I took him to the Vets to be checked out and I have a new menber to my extended family. My husband and I are at awe over his markings and resembilance to the Ocelot cat.

We have had the pleasure for the last 18 and a half years to share our life with our Scottish Folds. Hildie and Chumley were our first 2 babies in 1994. We bought them together and we had 16 perfect years with chumley (a beautiful brown tabby)until he passed away from kidney failure in 2010. Hildie is eighteen and a half now. She is a silver patch tabby with white. She was a fold to fold breeding and we always worried she would have health problems early on but she didn't. The only problem she has had was one she developed recently and at almost 19 yrs old that is to be expected .She has developed a serious chronic health problem which we are treating. She is doing well and we are thankful for each day we have her. Our folds were very healthy all of their lives. We have a new baby now which we got a year ago from Pegkens Scottish Folds in California and she is a doll. Scottish folds have incredible dispositions. I have had many cats over the years mostly rescue cats that found me. The Folds were the first cats I picked out myself and it has been an incredible experience having them. They are always loving and gentle. They want to be near you but are never over bearing. They are the sweetest cats I have ever owned. Very mellow and devoted. They have very soft thick fur. My Folds have been bred with Brittish short hairs and it is a beautiful combination. They travel well in the car and we have taken them on many trips to the beach where we vacation often. Scottish Folds are extraordinary cats I hope to always have one near me. I have my boyfriend Jeff to thank for reading an article in the newspaper many years ago about Scottish Folds and he said this would be the perfect cat for me. He was right and we have lived happily ever after with our folds!

I recently rescued a russian blue/domestic mix and she is the sweetest and most well behaved kitty I have ever encountered! She is very affectionate and smart - she can entertain herself very well! She does seem to be wary of strangers but will warm up eventually. Her coat is the most beautiful and soft fur! I highly reccommend this breed! We couldn't afford a purebred but I am so very happy with my halfsie!
