Thanks, that helps. And funny thing, because I just came into contact with the same lady a couple days ago about the identity of my cat, and further confirmed to me that Jak is, in fact, a Jappy after all. It's just that one of Jak's parents was indeed a Siamese, but Jak was one of two kittens...

Thanks. And that was one of my guesses. It's clearly evident that his Snowshoe pattern makes Jak part Siamese. I've also read that two tails are exactly alike when it comes to JBT's. He may very well be both. But it also makes me curious if I were to cross him with a female Siamese because his...

The last time I made a post, Jak was just a light colored kitten. Now that he is many months older, he has grown even more clingy like a dog. He is also very talkative like Siamese. I strongly believe that Jak has, no doubt, some Siamese in him. His coloration is that of a Snowshoe pattern...

Thanks for the update. I plan to have locks on certain doors, that's for sure. So then, would it be more or less right to consider Jak a Snowshoe-Siamese mix then? Or what would be the proper label? Either way, I may just have him fixed later on since he has no papers nor a pedigree.

In that case, the best thing for me to do would be to have him neutered once he is old enough. Pity, I really adore Jak's coat coloration and very soft, silky fur. It would've been nice to have more kittens like him. Oh well, can't be helped.

All of this is very helpful and informative. In any case, I probably will never get in touch with the breeder since the number changed. All I got from her was Jak's shot records and that's all. As mentioned to another member here, Jak has no pedigree, therefore, I can only speculate about his...

Thanks. I love how he looks. And as for the Snowshoe color, he was mostly white with the dark ears, eye patches and rump. The other color never set it until around between 7-10 weeks. Right now, Jak is around 15 weeks. And after doing more research on breeds, the Snowshoe is a Siamese crossed...

Jak doesn't have a pedigree, and I started questioning his genetics when I realized that "jappies" DO have tails, they are just very short, and curled or kinked, and no more than 3 inches away from the body. Jak was born completely tailless, yet the tuft of hair on his rump gives it a bunny...

I may have asked this before, but I cannot seem to find it. So I will do a new post just in case. My name is Marc, and I recently obtained a kitten (named Jak) from breeders who were moving towards Siamese cat. He was given to me as a Japanese Bobtail, but I believe that they were lying or...

Thanks, that helps! After looking closely at Jak and at the comments, he may be a deliberate cross of Siamese mix, and the breeder may have lied to me about Jak being a jappy. In either case, I plan to do a breed DNA test next month to find out exactly what he is. If he turns out to be a Siamese...

I live in San Antonio, Texas, so I think it's clear that the breed is fairly uncommon here. I'm convinced that his pattern is unique but not restricted to just him. After all, the older he grows, the most he stands out from other cats, pure or mixed. His hind legs are longer, his tail looks...

Hey dudes, just recently got a Japanese Bobtail kitten named Jak from a breeder who's moving to Siamese cats. I just game Jak his 3rd booster, and will give him his final round plus his first rabies next month. So I'm curious, while the breed confirmation mostly covets (for lack of better...
