Toyger Breeding Goals
The Toyger, still in its development phase, is a short-haired domestic cat designed to resemble a toy tiger, evoking the image of a tiger cub rather than a miniature tiger. Its distinctive traits set it apart from other breeds, mimicking the features of a big cat. Achieving these breeding goals is a gradual process, but past progress is both encouraging and exciting.
Unlike other cats, the Toyger boasts a long, wide nose, a full muzzle, and a prominent chin. Its eyes are small, and its ears are rounded and compact.
Breeders are focused on enhancing the Toyger’s pattern, aiming for a vivid, rich orange ground color with deep black tiger-like stripes. Some are also working on a whited underbody pattern. Initial successes include circular head markings, with aspirations for horizontal forehead markings similar to those of a tiger. A thick tiger-like jowl ruff remains a future goal.
Additionally, some breeding programs are exploring the development of white Toygers.
