Good to know
- Arose in the 1960s when a Siamese litter contained kittens with white feet.
- The white markings are notoriously hard to place correctly, so show-quality cats are rare.
- Many are fond of water, unusually for a cat.
Who it suits
Households where someone is around; it is affectionate, vocal and dislikes being ignored.
Care
Weekly brushing. Expect a cat that wants to be part of whatever you are doing.
History of the breed
Dorothy Hinds-Daugherty of Philadelphia found three kittens with white feet in a Siamese litter in the 1960s and bred them on with American Shorthairs. Progress was slow — the markings are hard to reproduce — and the breed nearly died out twice.
