| The CHEETOH is the newest wild/domestic hybrid cat, utilizing very specific bloodlines of the Bengal cat and the Ocicat breeds. The Cheetoh was first researched and developed by Carol Drymon of Wind Haven Exotics in 2001 and the first litters arrived at Wind Haven in 2003. Subsequently, other qualified breeders throughout the United States were invited to participate in the Cheetoh breeding program. This program is based on very specific breed standards and a 5 year breeding plan that was several years in the making. The CHEETOH Cat is now a recognized breed and registered with the United Feline Organization. We are are also recognized by TICA - The International Cat Association - as an Experimental New Breed. The CHEETOH Cat incorporates the distinctive characteristics of both the Ocicat and the Bengal, but has its own unique attributes. These include extremely large size, unsurpassed gentleness of character, and the wild look that can otherwise only be found in the jungles. The CHEETOH, though demonstrating a very fierce appearance, is at all times an incredibly social and loving cat, never aloof or showing any tendencies towards aggressive or standoffish behavior. They have an enormous amount of energy, especially the cubs, they expend in keeping themselves and their human companions entertained. The CHEETOH cat is also extremely intelligent and curious, often showing a very unfeline sense of humor. In summation, the CHEETOH is being bred to create the wildest looking domestic cat in the feline kingdom without adding further wild blood. The goal is to have an extremely large, sweet natured lap cat that looks like a true jungle cat that has a completely dependable docile nature that can be trusted around anyone, especially children. |
