🐈 GatosTonkinese
Felis catus
✨ Dato Curioso
Tonkinese cats have uniquely aqua or blue-green eyes — neither the Siamese sapphire blue nor the Burmese gold, but a stunning turquoise in-between.
A deliberate cross between Siamese and Burmese, combining Siamese colorpoints with Burmese's warm sepia tones into a unique 'mink' coat. Medium-sized, muscular, with aqua-colored eyes. Playful, affectionate, and intelligent — the best of both parent breeds.
