A hybrid resulting from the Burmese and the Siamese, this cat blends features from both breeds while maintaining a more compact body than many other cats of Asian lineage. Created in the US, the Tonkinese has gained significant popularity in both the US and the UK. It has a strong-willed nature and would rule the household if allowed, yet it is also loving and enjoys curling up on a lap. The Tonkinese excels at socializing with other pets, welcoming guests, and playing games.
