Breed Review: Munchkin Cat (15 Pics)

#7 Munchkins are unique, they cannot be confused with other cats due to their very shortened legs.

With an average body size, the legs of these cats are 2-3 times smaller than those of other breeds. Despite this mutation, the Munchkins retained a healthy spine, therefore they have a mobile, flexible, strong body. The average weight of cats ranges from 2.2 to 4 kilograms.

#8 Munchkins are often crossed with other breeds, so they can differ in appearance and character.

The offspring are often long-legged. Such cats do not participate in the show, but can be used for the development of the breed, since in the presence of two short-legged parents, the mortality of kittens in a litter increases. Breeders are actively developing munchkins, so the associations have not yet presented strict standards.

#9 Munchkin really looks at life and does not complain about its trials, he is confident in himself and his strengths, good-natured, curious.

To people, these cats seem slightly out of this world. This is not to say that the character of munchkins is approximately the same, it depends on genes, therefore their types of behavior are different. But in general, these are lively animals with great sympathy for people.
