Just looked like a moggy tabby when I got him at 8 weeks old from an animal shelter.

At home, I noticed that he had a LOT of energy, even for a kitten. And a funny sounding meow. I had never known a Siamese before except in pictures so I did not make the connection.

But when I took him to the vet for shots and he didn't like it, his complaining meow startled the vet, coming from a tabby. After a complete check of the cat's body shape, eyes, and ears, the vet said he was half Siamese.

He had typical Siamese behaviors, like following us everywhere, being a talker, and being smarter than any cat I've known, until my present one who is a mix of moggy and Egyptian Mau.

I think it must be a "toyger" Tanuki Oct 2021 #22

You could be right. My first thought was that it most likely was a Bengal because of the glitter highplainsdem Oct 2021 #34
