It’s always fun to see breeders ‘playing God’ to see what sort of animals they can create.  The latest new breed is the Toyger, registered with TICA as a new breed of cat.  So far there are about 400 Toygers, although Judy Sugden, the breeder, is continuing to perfect the breed.

In an oak-shaded backyard 30 miles outside of L.A., Judy Sugden is conducting a tour of her secret genetics lab. The well-kept facility consists of several cabins built of plywood and fencing in which dozens of domestic cats nap, wrestle, prance, and preen. The cats flock toward visitors as they pass by, poking paws through their cages. They’re striking creatures, more muscular than the average tabby, with reddish-amber fur set off by bold dark stripes. But to Sugden, they’re pieces of a puzzle—a collection of traits and tendencies from which she’s constructing a cat such as the world has never seen. (life)
