From Pat, TN
"Bob-Kitty" adopted me this summer. I
think she's about a year old now. Best I can

Coat Type, Color & Grooming
The most common pattern is
tri-colored, called mi-ke in
Japanese and made up of orange, black and
white. Bi-colored patterns of black and
white or orange and white, or solid coats
of any of the three colors, are also
possible. Nose and paw pad colors usually
correspond to predominant coat color.
Physical
Attributes
Medium to large in size; bobbed tail may
be a solid stub or may have kinks; lean,
muscular body; triangular head with high
cheekbones, slanted eyes, and large,
upright ears; hind legs longer than front
legs; silky, medium-length coat.
