Is Ocicat a species?
Yes. Ocicats are a mix of an Ocelot and a domestic cat and the following breeds: Siamese, Abyssinan, American Shorthair. Not correct - there is NO wild cat ancestry in the Ocicat. The Ocicat is a recognised breed of pedigree cat, first developed in the US in the late 1960s. The original cross was Siamese x Abyssinian, then later American SH was used to add the silver colour and to improve the boning. I am an Ocicat breeder in the UK so I do know the breed history and it's a common misconception that the Ocelot was involved. The only link to the Ocelot is that the original breeder thought the spotted kittens resembed Ocelots, hence the name "Ocicat".
Is the Ocicat named after the Ocelot?
Yes. I forgot the name, but the daughter of the owner of the very first Ocicat thought the spotted cat looked very much like an ocelot, so came the name.
