Originated from interbreeding of Abyssinian, Siamese, and American Shorthair, the Ocicat is a completely domestic cat with the look of the wild. The Ocicat got its name because of its resemblance to the Ocelot, a glorious wild cat from Central and South America.

A cat lover looking for something exotic will amor having an Ocicat as a housemate. Ocicats are intelligent, outgoing, and dedicated to their human families. They are adaptable to family life and will fetch, walk on a leash, and respond to your voice commands. Because of their sociable nature, Ocicats are not suited for people who are away long periods of time, but are happy in a household with other pets.
