Origins of the Pixiebob Breed
by Kyle Fuller of
Aston Woods PixieBobs
The origination of the Pixie-Bob came from out in
the Cascade mountains, near the shore of Puget Sound
where a short tailed polydactyl female barn cat was
being attacked by another cat. The owner of the cat
turned on the back porch light to see what was going
on. They saw a Coastal Red Bobcat leaving the scene.
Two months later their barn cat had a litter of
unusually wild looking kittens. They were big boned
with long ear tips and spotted pelts. As they grew
older the kittens seemed to be highly intelligent
and remarkably different to any other domestic breed
of cat. Coincidently, other litters were being born
throughout the North-West. All had and shared a
similar story or "Legend" to them. A women named
Carol Brewer purchased one of these legend cats, and
recognised it's intelligent dog like qualities. She
found an unrelated female legend cat and her first
kitten she named "Pixie". She then decided to take
on the task of begining a new breed. Although we
would like to believe our legend, there is no
scientific proof. All DNA test have been negative
for wild markers.This article is copyright ©
