HISTORY

While the Pixiebob may look like a miniature bobcat, the actual background of this domestic breed began in 1986, when Carol Ann Brewer noticed that her litter of kittens (a mix between a domestic shorthair and a polydactyl spotted male cat of unknown origin) had a very unique, wild look to them. She continued to breed these interesting looking cats until, after a few generations, a breed was born. The fact that they resemble the Bobtail cat is just an awesome coincidence.
