Best Answer

Toyger cats are a striped breed domestic cat. The aim was to cross these cats to produce a striped 'toy tiger' as the coat pattern is reminiscent of the tiger's striping. The Toyger is a breed in development. It is recognized only by TICA being accepted there for Registration Only in the early 1990's and Preliminary New Breed in 2000.
