How much does a ocicat cost??


BREED OF CAT

Hi there...Ocicat breeds can range between $500-$1200 (highest side for show quality).

Here's the Ocicat breeder list: http://www.breedlist.com/ocicat-breeders...

The Ocicat looks like a small wild spotted cat, but is in fact a fully domestic breed originally created by combining the Siamese, Abyssinian, and American Shorthair. There is no wild blood in its ancestry.

The first Ocicat was the surprise side effect of an attempt to create a Siamese-style cat with Abyssinian-colored pointing in 1964. The experiment proved repeatable, and by 1966 this breed was accepted for registration by CFA, although it was not until 1987 that the breed was advanced to championship status in that association. It was not exported to Europe until the end of the 1980s, and was accepted in FIFe in 1992.

"Ocis" are active, affectionate, and very social.

They are accepted for show only in the spotted pattern, but in several different colors. They are also available in many other patterns, such as classic, mackerel, and ticked tabby, but these are considered AOVs (any other variety) and are not showable.

Despite their wild appearance, they are friendly, outgoing, people-oriented cats without being clingy or obnoxious. They are intelligent, devoted, highly adaptable companions.

$1000-1200

I know this has nothing to do with it, but i commend you on your choice of breed. I won't have any other cat except them. All the ocicats i have had always want to cuddle, and clean your hands. They are always sweet, and never bite - unless you accidentally irritate a part of thier boddy.
