THE ORIENTAL CAT - “THE FELINE FERRARI”
Vroom,
Vroom...here comes one turbo-charged, fun-loving feline. With four on the
floor - not to mention on the couch, the table, the bed, the curtain rails or
anywhere else there's serious fun to be had - the fleet-of-foot Oriental
lives ( and loves ) life in the fast lane!!! This
entertaining livewire completely captivates all who come under its spell, for
it is a breed blessed with great charisma and character. It
is said that the eyes are the window of the soul - and the Oriental certainly
has an expression that says much. Gaze into its bewitching almond-shaped
green eyes and you feel as if you are coming face to face with the mysteries
of the orient. Admire its svelte super-sleek conformation and stylised
elegance and you are instantly aware of being in the presence of living
sculpture. Marvel at this cat's mystique as it effortlessly weaves its own
special brand of magic and you experience first hand the undeniable allure of
the exotic looking Oriental. This
breed encompasses cats with a Siamese body type and all-over solid or
patterned colouring ( not restricted to the "points" as with the
Siamese ). The green eyes are the only common denominator from a colour
perspective, for these cats come in an extremely wide range of attractive
hues and coat patterns. Apart
from solid colours of white, blue, lilac, red, cream, black ( some-times
called ebony ) and brown ( often referred to as havana ), the Oriental also
comes in tortoiseshell and tabby markings. The tabbies in particular come in
some exquisite colour combinations, such as lilac and silver and chocolate
and silver. The breed's high-gloss jacket only serves to show all these
spectacular shadings and patterns off to best advantage. The
Oriental's long slim legs and elegant carriage give it the look of a high
fashion model. Add to that the hard muscular condition of the long distance
runner and you have the ingredients for a graceful acrobat - ready, willing
and able to bound into the hearts and lives of anyone seeking a dynamic and
stimulating feline friend. Hard
to ignore, this purrsonality-plus puss demands attention. Inquisitive,
intelligent and self-assured, it insists on participating in family
activities - being anxious to lend a paw wherever possible ! Passionate in
its likes and dislikes, the Oriental has a very definite point of view on
most things. Although a little less vocal and demanding than the Siamese, it
is nevertheless an extroverted chatterbox which craves companionship - both
two-legged and four-legged. Affectionate and intensely devoted,
this is very much a cat for those who enjoy close encounters of the
captivating kind.
