The Owyhee Bob is a wonderful breed of cat started by mating a Siamese and a Manx cat.

The personalities are playful, extremely smart, loyal (very much like a dog), sweet-tempered and social. They love to be part of a family. They follow you room to room and when you sit down they are on your lap wanting love.

The most distinctive feature of this cat is its color and build. It is of medium to large size and body conformation. Females range from 8 to 12 pounds, and the males from 12 to 16 pounds. The head is wide and round with full cheekbones with a well developed muzzle that has prominent whisker pads. The strong chin gives a balanced appearance to the head. The ears are medium to large, wide set, full at base and tapering with sometime feathering to a rounded tip that is often tufted. The large oval sometimes slightly almond shaped eyes are slightly slanted and wide set. The body is medium in length, hard and muscular with a broad chest. The legs are sturdy and well muscled. Paws are large and can be polydactyl, frequently with tufts of hair between the toes. This breed is slow to mature. The hair length comes in both long and short. The tail may be any length but preference is given to the stumpy length or lacking entirely, as in the Manx. The eye color is blue. For our classifieds please click here: Available Owyhee Bobs
