Leonardo da Vinci once stated, “Even the smallest feline is a masterpiece.” One can’t help but keep the phrase in mind when contemplating the small wonder known to us as the Singapura. (VetStreet)
“Too darn cute for words!” “What a personality!” “Well worth the wait!” The cat all these folks are referring to is the Singapura, “the best kept secret in the cat fancy”! When asked what makes these cats so special, one breeder responds, “Initially, it is their deceptive, delicate appearance with big eyes and angelic face. The true hook is Singapura’s enchanting personality.” (Springville Cattery)
A natural breed, the Singapura is not outcrossed to any other breeds, and only comes in one color: “brown ticked agouti, described as dark brown ticking against a yellowish ivory background. Looking out at the world are eyes of celadon green, hazel, gold or copper with dark mascara markings and facial lines. On the forehead, the Singapura is marked with the tabby M shape.” (VetStreet) It is the smallest known breed of domestic cat.

The Cat Fancy Alphabet
\"The Cat Fancy Alphabet\" is a new feature in Cat Talk. It highlights various terms and aspects of the cat fancy, educating fanciers new and old about our hobby.
UP CLOSE AND Purr-sonal
If there is one person, or even just a name, that anyone in CFA (Cat Fancier Association) knows, it would have to be Allene Tartaglia. It might be from her involvement with most aspects of the operations of CFA in her position of executive director. Or perhaps from her deep involvement with both the CFA Annual meeting and/or the International Show. Cat Talk thought it was time to learn more about one of the most key people in CFA.
Vision and Hearing Dysfunctions in Senior Cats
Just as people are challenged by having deficiencies with vision and hearing over time, so are senior cats. In senior cats, pet owners may notice their cats are no longer responding to them in the same way; however, it may be difficult to figure out.
Senior Cats and House Soiling
Why is my cat no longer using its litter box? Cat soiling in the house is one of the most talked about issues for pet owners.
Nutrition for Our Senior Cats

Alternative Arthritis Treatments for Cats
Just like humans, cats can experience arthritis. About 90% of cats over the age of 10 years experience osteoarthritis (OA) in at least one joint.1 It is a complex condition involving inflammation and degeneration of one or more joints and is sometimes referred to as degenerative joint disease (DJD). Cats with OA experience pain and inflammation in various joints that interfere with daily activities.
