Tonkinese Breed Description Tonkinese are a medium-sized short-haired cat breed distinguished by points as with Siamese and Himalayans. They are commonly referred to as 'Tonks'. Tonkinese cats are commonly trim and muscular cats. They are usually intelligent, curious, affectionate with people, and interested in them. Tonks are playful cats, but not hyperactive, although they can be mischievous if they become lonesome or bored. Some interesting toys and a cat tree, or, better yet, another Tonkinese, will keep them occupied when you're not around. Unlike most varieties of cat, they are reported to sometimes, or even often, engage in fetching, and they can often be found perched on the highest object in the house. [Much more on this breed can be learned at the wonderful Wikipedia.]
