For the most part, hybrid cats act just like normal cats and are bred with an emphasis on friendliness and sociability toward people.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">All of the hybrids listed below are fully established breeds accepted by <a href=\"https:\/\/tica.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">The International Cat Association<\/span><\/a>, which is an international all-breed cat registry. These breeds are far removed from their wild relatives and are considered domestic cats.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">If you like the exotic look of big cats like tigers, jaguars, and lions, or smaller wild cats like cheetahs, servals, leopard cats, and jungle cats, then these hybrid breeds will be right up your alley.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-row card-review\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span

The breed had its beginnings in 1986 when a female domestic cat gave birth to a kitten sired by an African serval.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This first-generation hybrid cross (F1) kitten, named Savannah, inherited traits from both her domestic mother and serval father. Patrick Kelly and Joyce Sroufe worked together to create a new breed, the Savannah, which was accepted for registration by TICA in 2001, and achieved championship status in 2012.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Like the serval, the Savannah is tall and lean with a long neck, large ears, and a boldly spotted coat. This breed is curious, outgoing, and assertive. Unusual for most cats, the Savannah enjoys playing in the water. Like other hybrid breeds, the Savannah needs a lot of exercise and mental stimulation to be happy. They are engaging pets that will steal your hearts like no other cat.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"su-row card-review\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"product-review-heading\">#2 <\/span>Chausie<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_20915\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20915\" class=\"wp-image-20915\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Chausies.jpg\" alt=\"Chausie, abyssinian cat on dark brown background\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Chausies.jpg 700w, https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Chausies-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Chausies-624x415.jpg 624w, https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Chausies-540x360.jpg 540w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-20915\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tania__Wild \/ Shutterstock.com<\/p><\/div>\n    <div class=\"article-cat-breed\">\n        <div class=\"breed-table\">\n            <span class=\"table-title\">Breed Overview<\/span>\n            <div class=\"table-item\">\n\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"table-item-img\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ribosome\/img\/breed-origin-icon.svg\" alt=\"Chausie\" alt=\"Origin\">\n\n                <span class=\"table-item-title\">\n                        Origin:\n                        <div class=\"tip\">\n                            ?\n                            <span class=\"tip-text\">\n                                Where this breed was first established.                            <\/span>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/span>\n                <span class=\"table-item-value\">Egypt, South Asia<\/span>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"table-item\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"table-item-img\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ribosome\/img\/breed-height-icon.svg\" alt=\"Chausie\" alt=\"Heigth\">\n                <span class=\"table-item-title\">\n                        Height:\n                        <div class=\"tip\">\n                            ?\n                            <span class=\"tip-text\">\n                                The typical adult height among individuals of this breed.

This hybrid breed was developed in the 1990s when a collaboration of breeders crossed a small, wild cat called the jungle cat <i>(Felis chaus)<\/i> with domestic cats. The jungle cat itself looks a lot like a domestic cat, being small in size with moderate features. After its development, the Chausie cat was granted foundation registration status with TICA in 1995, and given championship status in 2013.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Chausie has a short to medium, slightly coarse double coat that comes in three color patterns: brown ticked tabby, sandy and reddish-brown, or gray that looks a lot like the caracal\u2019s coat. Some Chausies are solid black or black grizzled ticked tabby, which is a unique color pattern inherited directly from the breed\u2019s wild ancestor, the jungle cat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Like the Bengal, the Chausie is extremely active and energetic. This breed is go, go, go all the time. Their curiosity and energy drive Chausies to explore, which can lead to them opening cabinets and strewing the contents all around. This breed needs lots of interactive playtime and attention from its people.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Chausie does not do well if left alone for many hours a day. They form close bonds with their human family (adults and older children are best for this breed) and will doll out plenty of affection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"su-row card-review\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"product-review-heading\">#3 <\/span>Cheetoh<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_20921\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20921\" class=\"wp-image-20921\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Cheetoh-cat.jpg\" alt=\"Cheetoh cat\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Cheetoh-cat.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Cheetoh-cat-540x360.jpg 540w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-20921\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lux Blue \/ Shutterstock.com<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\">    <div class=\"article-cat-breed\">\n        <div class=\"breed-table\">\n            <span class=\"table-title\">Breed Overview<\/span>\n            <div class=\"table-item\">\n\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"table-item-img\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ribosome\/img\/breed-origin-icon.svg\" alt=\"Cheetoh\" alt=\"Origin\">\n\n                <span class=\"table-item-title\">\n                        Origin:\n                        <div class=\"tip\">\n                            ?\n                            <span class=\"tip-text\">\n                                Where this breed was first established.                            <\/span>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/span>\n                <span class=\"table-item-value\">United States<\/span>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"table-item\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"table-item-img\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ribosome\/img\/breed-height-icon.svg\" alt=\"Cheetoh\" alt=\"Heigth\">\n                <span class=\"table-item-title\">\n                        Height:\n                        <div class=\"tip\">\n                            ?\n                            <span class=\"tip-text\">\n                                The typical adult height among individuals of this breed.

Although the Cheetoh has no recent wild cat blood (its Bengal ancestors are many generations removed from the Asian leopard cat), the breed was designed to look strikingly wild while remaining completely domestic.<\/p>\n<p>Cheetoh cats are known for their long, muscular bodies, large ears, and beautifully patterned coats, which often feature vivid spots or rosettes reminiscent of wild cats. The coat is soft, short, and silky, usually appearing in brown or black spotted patterns.<\/p>\n<p>Despite their exotic look, Cheetohs are exceptionally affectionate, social, and gentle. They\u2019re highly intelligent and playful, with an energetic personality similar to the Bengal.

However, there is no evidence that the Pixie-Bob contains any bobcat blood, or any wild blood at all, for that matter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">For now, the jury is still out on whether this breed is truly a hybrid or is completely domestic, but the Pixie-Bob is affectionate, active, sociable, and has been described as doglike. Its thick double-coat is patterned in brown spotted tabby, and the Pixie-Bob often has lynx tips on the ears. It always has a naturally bobbed tail.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The founder of the Pixie-Bob breed, Carol Ann Brewer, rescued a very tall classic patterned male with a short tail in the 1980s. This cat was bred with a neighbor's domestic female, and Brewer adopted a female kitten from the litter. This kitten, who was named Pixie, looked wild, with a spotted, red-fawn-colored coat and a bobtail.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Enamored, she set about to create a breed with this distinctive appearance. TICA accepted the Pixie-Bob for Exhibition Status in 1994; it was granted championship status in 1997.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"su-row card-review\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"product-review-heading\">#5 <\/span>Bengal<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_46146\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-46146\" class=\"wp-image-46146\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/traditional-bengal-cat-compressed.jpg\" alt=\"Bengal Cat\" width=\"1000\" height=\"714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/traditional-bengal-cat-compressed.jpg 700w, https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/traditional-bengal-cat-compressed-624x446.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-46146\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kirill Vorobyev \/ Shutterstock.com<\/p><\/div>\n    <div class=\"article-cat-breed\">\n        <div class=\"breed-table\">\n            <span class=\"table-title\">Breed Overview<\/span>\n            <div class=\"table-item\">\n\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"table-item-img\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ribosome\/img\/breed-origin-icon.svg\" alt=\"Bengal\" alt=\"Origin\">\n\n                <span class=\"table-item-title\">\n                        Origin:\n                        <div class=\"tip\">\n                            ?\n                            <span class=\"tip-text\">\n                                Where this breed was first established.                            <\/span>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/span>\n                <span class=\"table-item-value\">United States<\/span>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"table-item\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"table-item-img\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ribosome\/img\/breed-height-icon.svg\" alt=\"Bengal\" alt=\"Heigth\">\n                <span class=\"table-item-title\">\n                        Height:\n                        <div class=\"tip\">\n                            ?\n                            <span class=\"tip-text\">\n                                The typical adult height among individuals of this breed.

Mill, first experimented with crossing a domestic cat with the Asian leopard cat in the 1960s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Two decades later, Mill again set out to create a wild-looking cat with a docile personality, and the result was the beginning of the modern Bengal breed. TICA accepted the Bengal as a new breed in 1986, and the breed was granted championship status in 1991.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Bengal\u2019s dense, luxurious and close-lying coat is soft and silky. The coat comes in two lengths: shorthair (short to medium) and longhair (medium to long, with furnishings). Some Bengals have \u201cglitter,\u201d a term used to describe a certain type of hair that reflects light and makes the cat look as though it has been sprinkled with glitter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Bengals may be spotted, marbled, charcoal spotted, or charcoal marbled. Some Bengal coats feature special spots called rosettes, which resemble the markings seen on leopards, jaguars, and ocelots.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Bengals are an athletic and energetic breed that loves to climb, run, pounce, and play. They are happiest when they get a lot of mental stimulation and exercise. Some Bengal owners even use cat running wheels to help them get enough physical exercise.

Instead, the Serengeti was developed using Bengals and Oriental Shorthairs. This means the Serengeti has a very small amount of wild cat blood, inherited from Bengal, which itself was created using the wild Asian leopard cat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The breed founder, Karen Sausman of California, started work developing the Serengeti in 1995, and today the breed is found throughout the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, Australia, and other parts of the world. The Serengeti is an Advanced New Breed, which means it is eligible to be shown in TICA-sanctioned shows but does not earn titles or points.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Serengeti has long legs, a long neck, and large ears. The short, silky coat comes in brown tabby, solid black, and silver\/smoke. Confident, friendly, and vocal, Serengeti cats are extremely active and like to run, climb, and play.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"su-row card-review\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"product-review-heading\">#7 <\/span>Toyger<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_21098\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21098\" class=\"wp-image-21098\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/cool-Toyger.jpg\" alt=\"adorable toyger kitten with collar lying on couch in living room with pillow in background - striped cat\" width=\"1000\" height=\"714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/cool-Toyger.jpg 700w, https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/cool-Toyger-600x429.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/cool-Toyger-624x446.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21098\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">stockelements \/ Shutterstock.com<\/p><\/div>\n    <div class=\"article-cat-breed\">\n        <div class=\"breed-table\">\n            <span class=\"table-title\">Breed Overview<\/span>\n            <div class=\"table-item\">\n\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"table-item-img\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ribosome\/img\/breed-origin-icon.svg\" alt=\"Toyger\" alt=\"Origin\">\n\n                <span class=\"table-item-title\">\n                        Origin:\n                        <div class=\"tip\">\n                            ?\n                            <span class=\"tip-text\">\n                                Where this breed was first established.                            <\/span>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/span>\n                <span class=\"table-item-value\">United States<\/span>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"table-item\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"table-item-img\" src=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ribosome\/img\/breed-height-icon.svg\" alt=\"Toyger\" alt=\"Heigth\">\n                <span class=\"table-item-title\">\n                        Height:\n                        <div class=\"tip\">\n                            ?\n                            <span class=\"tip-text\">\n                                The typical adult height among individuals of this breed.

The breed was initially developed using a domestic cat, a Bengal, and a street cat from India. The very small amount of wild cat blood in the Toyger comes from the Bengal, which was created using the Asian leopard cat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The key to creating the Toyger\u2019s distinctive tiger-striped pattern was the mackerel tabby pattern found in many cats. A cat breeder named Judy Sugden tried to improve the clarity of mackerel tabby markings when she realized one of her Bengal cats had two spots of tabby markings on his head. She bred this Bengal cat and a striped domestic shorthair, and the Toyger was on its way.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Toyger\u2019s beautiful coat displays a bold, vertical striped pattern and circular markings on the head similar to those found on a tiger. The breed even has a unique, rolling gait reminiscent of a real tiger strolling through the savanna. Friendly to people and other pets, the Toyger is laid-back, intelligent, and very interactive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">Non-Hybrid Cat Breeds That Look Wild<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">For cat lovers who want a pet that looks like it just stepped out of the jungle, there is no shortage of wonderful breeds to explore. In addition to the hybrid breeds, the Bengal, Chausie, Pixie-Bob, Savannah, Serengeti, and Toyger, some other breeds look like wild animals but are 100% domestic. The black <a href=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/cat-breeds\/bombay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bombay<\/a> looks like a panther, but it was created using the <a href=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/cat-breeds\/burmese\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Burmese<\/a> and black <a href=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/cat-breeds\/american-shorthair\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">American Shorthair<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/cat-breeds\/abyssinian\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Abyssinian<\/a> looks very exotic and wild, but it is a fully domestic breed. With its spotted coat, you might think the <a href=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/cat-breeds\/ocicat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ocicat<\/a> had wild blood, but this breed was created from Abyssinians, <a href=\"https:\/\/cats.com\/cat-breeds\/siamese\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Siamese<\/a> cats, and American Shorthairs.

Some small wild cats that have been used to create hybrid cat breeds include the African serval, the Asian leopard cat, and the jungle cat. Some established hybrid cat breeds include the Bengal, Chausie, Savannah, Serengeti, and Toyger. <\/p>\n<p>Although the Pixie-Bob looks like a miniature bobcat, and is rumored to have been created with a bobcat hybrid cat and a domestic cat, this has never been proven so no one can say for sure whether the Pixie-Bob is a true hybrid cat breed. Another hybrid cat breed, called the Cheetoh, was created by crossbreeding Bengal cats and Ocicats. The Cheetoh cat is not fully established and is not currently accepted by any cat breed registry.<\/p>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                    <div itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\">\n                        <h3 itemprop=\"name\">\n                            <div class=\"question-mark\">\n                                <svg width=\"42\" height=\"42\" viewBox=\"0 0 42 42\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n                                    <path d=\"M23.3438 31.1562C23.3438 31.6198 23.2063 32.0729 22.9488 32.4584C22.6912 32.8438 22.3252 33.1442 21.8969 33.3216C21.4687 33.499 20.9974 33.5454 20.5428 33.455C20.0881 33.3645 19.6705 33.1413 19.3427 32.8135C19.0149 32.4858 18.7917 32.0681 18.7013 31.6135C18.6109 31.1588 18.6573 30.6876 18.8347 30.2593C19.0121 29.8311 19.3125 29.465 19.6979 29.2075C20.0833 28.95 20.5365 28.8125 21 28.8125C21.6216 28.8125 22.2178 29.0594 22.6573 29.499C23.0968 29.9385 23.3438 30.5346 23.3438 31.1562ZM21 10.0625C16.6914 10.0625 13.1875 13.2168 13.1875 17.0938V17.875C13.1875 18.2894 13.3521 18.6868 13.6452 18.9799C13.9382 19.2729 14.3356 19.4375 14.75 19.4375C15.1644 19.4375 15.5618 19.2729 15.8549 18.9799C16.1479 18.6868 16.3125 18.2894 16.3125 17.875V17.0938C16.3125 14.9453 18.416 13.1875 21 13.1875C23.584 13.1875 25.6875 14.9453 25.6875 17.0938C25.6875 19.2422 23.584 21 21 21C20.5856 21 20.1882 21.1646 19.8952 21.4576C19.6021 21.7507 19.4375 22.1481 19.4375 22.5625V24.125C19.4375 24.5394 19.6021 24.9368 19.8952 25.2299C20.1882 25.5229 20.5856 25.6875 21 25.6875C21.4144 25.6875 21.8118 25.5229 22.1049 25.2299C22.3979 24.9368 22.5625 24.5394 22.5625 24.125V23.9844C26.125 23.3301 28.8125 20.4883 28.8125 17.0938C28.8125 13.2168 25.3086 10.0625 21 10.0625ZM41.3125 21C41.3125 25.0174 40.1212 28.9446 37.8892 32.285C35.6573 35.6254 32.4849 38.2289 28.7733 39.7663C25.0616 41.3037 20.9775 41.706 17.0372 40.9222C13.097 40.1384 9.47766 38.2039 6.6369 35.3631C3.79615 32.5224 1.86157 28.903 1.07781 24.9628C0.294046 21.0225 0.696301 16.9384 2.23371 13.2267C3.77111 9.51512 6.37462 6.34274 9.71499 4.11077C13.0554 1.87881 16.9826 0.6875 21 0.6875C26.3855 0.693187 31.5487 2.83507 35.3568 6.64317C39.1649 10.4513 41.3068 15.6145 41.3125 21ZM38.1875 21C38.1875 17.6006 37.1795 14.2776 35.2909 11.4511C33.4023 8.62467 30.718 6.4217 27.5774 5.12082C24.4368 3.81994 20.9809 3.47957 17.6469 4.14275C14.3128 4.80594 11.2503 6.44289 8.84661 8.8466C6.4429 11.2503 4.80595 14.3128 4.14276 17.6469C3.47958 20.9809 3.81995 24.4368 5.12083 27.5774C6.42171 30.718 8.62468 33.4023 11.4511 35.2909C14.2776 37.1795 17.6006 38.1875 21 38.1875C25.5568 38.1823 29.9255 36.3699 33.1477 33.1477C36.3699 29.9255 38.1823 25.5568 38.1875 21Z\" fill=\"#828FA1\"\/>\n                                <\/svg>\n                            <\/div>\n                            What is the biggest hybrid cat?                            <div class=\"question-angle\">\n                                <svg width=\"35\" height=\"20\" viewBox=\"0 0 35 20\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n                                    <path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M34.1269 0.504921C35.1752 1.25869 35.2967 2.58264 34.3981 3.46205L17.5 20L0.601898 3.46205C-0.296654 2.58264 -0.175251 1.25869 0.873062 0.504921C1.92138 -0.248853 3.49962 -0.147011 4.39817 0.732392L17.5 13.555L30.6018 0.732392C31.5004 -0.147011 33.0786 -0.248853 34.1269 0.504921Z\" fill=\"#828FA1\"\/>\n                                <\/svg>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/h3>\n                        <div itemscope itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\" class=\"cliverse-post-faq-answer\">\n                            <div itemprop=\"text\">\n                                <p>The largest hybrid cat breed is the Savannah.
