Ancestral origin
Ossey cat originated in the United States, 1964. Ancestor Siamese cat * Siamese cat / Abyssinian cat. In the central part of the American continent, there is an ocelot with beautiful spots in its coat, whose English name is ocel-lette, and the appearance of the Ossey cat is named after its resemblance to the ocelot. Spots full of wild style, coupled with a friendly and alert temperament, extremely bold. In fact, it is a breed based on the Abyssini cat, mated with the Goro cat and the American shorthair cat, and bred artificially.
The spelling for "Ocey cat" is a combination of "ocelot" (the spotted wildcat of the Americas) and "cat". Indeed, the breed's speckled coat makes it resemble a small wildcat. In 1964, breeding specialist Birginia daly of Berkeley, Michigan, crossed siamese-Abyssinian cats with chocolate accent colored Siamese cats in hopes of obtaining the spotted accent color Siamese cat. Among the kittens obtained was a tomcat named Tonga.
