COLOR PATTERNS Brown Tabby is the only acceptable color for the Pixie Bob Agouti (Ticked Tabby) - Lacking pattern, like a rabbit's coat. See Baycha., left. Sometimes referred to as "trout spotting." Classic - Having a circular, bull's eye type pattern. See Chaz below left. Mackerel - Having stripes. See Catch 22, right.
Broken Mackerel - Having some stripes,
or rib bars, but most stripes breaking up into spots. This is a legal show pattern and the spotting of most show cats.

Legend Cat
- Referring to the cat believed to
have bobcat ancestry, or resulting from the alleged Bobcat/Domestic cat
mating. There has never been proof of such a mating. Of
course, this is a "Legend" and like most legends... Blue List - regulations change, but this is an attempt to trace the Pixie Bob pedigree back to "Pixie". TICA - The International Cat Association. FTLOP - "For the Love of Pixie", a club for Pixie Bob enthusiasts. IPBS - "International Pixie Bob Society", official TICA PixieBob club. CFA - Cat Fanciers Association. CFA does not accept Pixie Bobs or any breed of cat that has, or could have, wild heritage. ACFA - American Cat Fanciers Association. LOOF - French Official Book of Feline Origins. A French cat Association. TITLE ABBREVIATIONS AND MORE |
|||
SGC
- Supreme Grand Champion (highest
championship title) IW - International Winner
- top 25 cats in the world |
IW and RW appear before the championship titles, for example RW SGC Special Agent Sniper Scout. If that cat earns an IW, the RW title would be dropped since it is redundant, i.e. LA SGC Special Agent Sniper Scout. International Winner would also be a Regional Winner, just as a SGC would have already been a QGC. Likewise, an LA title would replace the IW title, as IW SGC Special Agent Sniper Scout became LA SGC Special Agent Sniper Scout. Only the highest title is listed. OD - Outstanding Dam
(Mother of at least 5 cats achieving GCH or better) PB - Pixie Bob, Shorthaired Pixie Bob PL - Longhaired Pixie Bob |
