3595.1 | Ocicats? (neat!) | SASE::SOULARD | Here Kitty Kitty...--meow? | Mon May 14 1990 10:22 | 15 |
| If I am not being too nosey, approximately how much do Ocicats go for?
Do they require any special treatment. I've had common house cats all
my life, so I don't know too much about Ocicats, but your sounds nice.
I have 3 males (Kitty 5, Jazmyn 4, Sassafrass 4). I previously had a
black cat, but gave it to my parents because it was not getting along
too well with our other cats...(my parents have the brother of Jazmyn
and Sass - a male all black so the new black cat -who is 2- gets along
great with theirs!)
Bradford is like 2 minutes away from me, and I did see their ad for
Ocicats in a cat magazine last year.
Oh well, just wondering!

3595.2 | Here's what I found out | FSHQA2::RKAGNO | A Cat Makes a Purrfect Friend | Mon May 14 1990 10:49 | 12 |
| Doreen, tho I'm not Cathy, I did check into the price of Ocicats
for a relative of mine once. It was around the fall of last year,
and a pet quality kitten sold for $350. I do not recall the breeder
I spoke with; I approached someone at a cat show and asked that
one question.
Ocicats are very unique and striking. Congrats, Cathy, on the new
addition!

| That's the general price range for pets $350 - $450. Of course, show
quality are higher. Kazar's Cattery is on 155 Salem St. in Bradford.
Thier phone number is 508-373-0694.
They are VERY unique both in coloring and facial features.

3595.4 | More detail, please. | CGVAX2::LANDRY | Closer to the Heart | Mon May 14 1990 11:36 | 7 |
| Are these the cats with no fur? Can someone describe them in more
detail? They sound very interesting.
Congrats on your new baby!

| Ocicats look a bit like wild cats - with fur! The hairless cat that
you are thinking of is the Sphinx or is that Sphynx?

| Rex should have fur. The rex coat is close lying to the body, but
has a tight marcel wave to it (should have). Sometimes rex will
lose some of their coat, making them look bald in spots, but they
most certainly do have hair.

3595.8 | has hair | DNEAST::FIRTH_CATHY | owl | Tue May 15 1990 16:40 | 10 |
| Re:more info
ocicats remind me of leopards with strips down the back at the rest is
spotted. Freckles is short-haired. Right now at 12 weeks as I
mentioned earlier he is all legs and ears.
Very friendly and blended in very fast with 4 of the other 5 cats the
other one is the snippy one, not Freckles.
