The Tonkinese has a medium sized body, not cobby and not long. Aqua eyes. They sleep in piles. Wong Mau, the cat that the Tonkinese is traced back to, and first thought of as a Burmese, was actually a Tonkinese with Siamese and Burmese coming from her. The profile provided by CFA (see Recommended Web Links below), is a couple of years old and the "Wong Mau issue" is now being explored.
- BREED TYPE: Man-made (re-creation)
- BODY TYPE: Semi-cobby
