Pixie-Bob cat

Pixie-bob is a pedigreed breed of domestic cat. The breed was originally claimed to contain bobcat admixture. However, it is generally regarded as pure domestic stock based upon historical DNA testing reportedly conducted in 1996, although the underlying methodology and primary data do not appear to be publicly available. They were selectively bred in the United States from a number of domestic cats which were believed to contain admixture with the North American bobcat (Lynx rufus). They are relatively large-sized polydactyl cats with a short tail, and have a black spotted tabby coat.
