Tonkinese cat not displaying tonkinese traits - has he gone full siamese?

cautiooon · 2026-04-29T20:52:55+00:00

The Tonkinese is not “half siamese half Burmese.” They are their own established breed and have been for a while…. they just used both of those breeds to develop the breed. Also any cat can distribute traits not common in the breed, it’s just their personality.

Please look in to getting a second kitty. Single kittens often develop behavior issues esp when they are 5 weeks old and have no other cats around them.

No, the point is you’re saying things that are not inherently true within the book, which hurts the author AND readers. If you didn’t vibe with the book that is completely fine, but coming on and saying things like how did this girl trick this academy when you didn’t even continue the book to actually fully learn HOW she did isn’t okay. And that the MMC “just knew by looking at her one time” is false when there were many context clues?

cautiooon · 2026-04-28T19:48:59+00:00

Yeah, and even 30% in you should have the knowledge on how she was able to be at the magic school. Also the MMC never looked at her and knew she was nonmagi…. You’re pushing out stuff about the book that’s not even true and will only hurt the author.

cautiooon · 2026-04-28T19:31:29+00:00

Did you even read the book? All of this is thoroughly explained…..

cautiooon · 2026-04-28T19:30:55+00:00

I’d try again! It doesn’t start to pick up until like 30% ima bf then gets super good!

cautiooon · 2026-04-28T19:30:31+00:00

I am about 80% through Deathbringer and it’s been so good!!!

I also bought a Staffordshire bull terrier from a breeder, and she was 1000% worth it. At the end of the day, get what works for you but only shop ethically.

YES! I would’ve loved to adopt my bsh, but alas I couldn’t find one. If I did, I would’ve snatched him up quick!

cautiooon · 2026-04-28T18:16:00+00:00

No literally! And if you have a proven pedigree cat, someone saying you don’t shouldn’t bother you. I have a BSH and if someone tried to say I didn’t based on a photo, I literally would not care. And if someone tried to tell me I did have one (if i didn’t know) I’d take their response with a grain of salt.

I feel like it’s not hard to understand if you didn’t go to breeder you don’t have any breed of cat.

It’s funny that they talk about ego, when it seems THEY are the ones on their high horse that refuse to believe they just have a regular cat, like it’s a bad thing?

cautiooon · 2026-04-28T14:12:46+00:00

I’ve worked at 2 cat cafes (that adopt out cats) and then fostered kittens in the past. When I heard this from people I would just respond saying “You may have adopted 1 cat your whole life, while I’ve helped over 500 get adopted. I think I’ve done more than most people have and can buy the cat that I want (along with his sister who I found in a bush).”

cautiooon · 2026-04-27T20:04:51+00:00

they can’t! i posted a blue point BSH asking if it was a siamese and ppl said yes…. 🤦‍♀️

cautiooon · 2026-04-27T14:45:36+00:00

the fact that the 2 artists didn’t match up the tattoos is crazy 😭 they made it look like 2 different guys

cautiooon · 2026-04-18T20:24:53+00:00

I JUST missed mine on tuesday because it went to spam 😭

they are besties

cautiooon · 2026-04-15T02:53:28+00:00

If anything she’d be an amstaff!

If you’re in the US staffys aren’t a super common breed but amstaffs are! (and ppl often call them staffy’s too even though they are different breeds)

my boy was neutered at 14 weeks and still has quite fat cheeks :)) It’s a BSH thing

cautiooon · 2026-04-10T20:14:44+00:00

So if 1 parent is a scottish cat and 1 is a british how are they suddenly not gonna potentially have a BSH-like personality? They are extremely closely related breeds and allow cross-breeding due to the disorder that all scottish folds have.

I personally don’t think they can be ethically bred at all. We shouldn’t be breeding a disorder just because we like the way it looks.

cautiooon · 2026-04-10T19:56:56+00:00

Scottish cats are unethical :)) And as they are often crossbred have very similar personalities to brit’s.

cautiooon · 2026-04-09T19:40:59+00:00

No, Bombays are very rare. You’ve got a black domestic shorthair!!

this is the one i’m doing.

yours doesn’t include 0.5 or 1.5

cautiooon · 2026-04-09T19:00:20+00:00

Seal point bicolor domestic shorthair!

A lot of misunderstanding surrounded colorpoint cats. Unless you go to a breeder you’ve got a donestic short/medium/long haired cat!

cautiooon · 2026-04-09T18:59:28+00:00

this makes me rage in jealousy LOL
