JBravo, just another question. Sorry about being a pest. What's an ocicat's nature? They seem to like lots of activity. Very social? The impression I've heard is that they like being around lots of activity and people and are very smart. I like interactive cats; my late cat D'Artagnan was a wonderful cat, but one of the laziest cats I've ever seen. Dart was a few fries short of a Happy Meal too.

Yes, he is very high maintenance. He meets me at the door and follows me through the house. He also demands that I pay attention to him by bringing me his ball to throw. Before I got an automatic feeder, he would wake me up at 4 AM by knocking verious things down, etc. When I would spray him with a water bottle, he would immediately jump on the bed and put his face up to the bottle, wanting me to spray him. Yes, he is very smart and he knows it!

Gorgeous cat. I just have one issue about cat breeding---why are those cats so blasted expensive? I think it's wrong to charge thousands to people who want an animal. Get a shelter cat.

[JBravo007]

If everyone paid (or were paid) "thousands" for their cat, they wouldn't be so quick to take it to a shelter. I signed a contract that I would not take mine to a shelter and I would have him fixed. In this day of instant gratification many people demand their wants to be met, and when they are not, they demand that everyone else be brought down to their level.  If you want an Ocicat, save your money and keep your eyes open for a good deal like I did, if you need a cat, go to a shelter.

I am interested in this breed....can you rovide me with information on where to purchase suck a cat?

[JBravo007]

Sure, I got Gabriel from Denise at "White Fang's Spottery" in Labelle, FL. You can find her site on google. Gabe's dad is "Grand Champion Auxarcs Ozzie" and his mom is "Skunk." Gabe is a silver, chocolate spotted Ocicat and "yes" he has lost weight since the video and "no" he's not pregnant ;-).

XD I have an ocicat too! And the vet says he's overweight. 12 lb last I checked. Heh. Now that's an idea!

As the parent of a shelter cat and an Ocicat, as they say, you get what you pay for. Shelter cats-no warranty. Ours was cute in the cage but once we got him home ( 7 months old) it turns out he was a street cat (which they didn't tell us) and we told them that we have a B&B and need a cat with a good attitude and he does not have a great temperment at all and we're stuck with him. The Ocicat comes from a top breeder and he is everything we expected. Well worth the price and good advertising!

We got one from DotDotDot Ocicats in Nebraska. One of their sires is the kitty on the Iams catfood bag! And what an intelligent sweetheart he is. While not much of a lap cat as he is always exploring, he loves to play and is fast as lightning and not very talkative and unbelievably gentle. Keep them svelt and they can jump straight up and rebound off the ceiling! Well, almost.
