What is the newest breed of cat?
Hi there...depending on what you would consider newest since there are a few new breeds who have been created, but widely recognized until recently such as the Bengal cat (a hybrid cat where a domestic breed is bred to an Asian Leopard Cat) or a Savannah (another hybrid where a African serval is bred to a domestic cat). There are a few more, however it depends on who recognizes them such as the Cat Fanciers Association (CFA) which do not recognize the hybrid breeds, but The Internation Cat Association (TICA) does. There are other hybrids, but not commonly as accessible as the Bengal or Savannah and much more expensive than a Bengal which averages between $500-1500 and Savannahs between $1500-5000.

The IPCBA (International Progressive Cat Breeders Alliance) recognizes 73 feline breeds, while the more conservative CFA (Cat Fanciers' Association) gives the nod to only 41.

A cat must have a traceable lineage going back several generations to be registered as a pedigreed cat.
