BROWN AND ORDINARY TABBY, STRIPED, SHORT-HAIR.
Small, broad across and between the eyes, rounded above,
below tapering towards the lips, nose rather long than short,
ears of medium size, narrow and rounded at apex, broad at the
base.
Orange-yellow, slightly tinted with green, large, full,
round, and very lustrous.
Short, of even length, smooth, silky, and glossy.
Deep, very rich reddish-brown, more rufous inside the legs
and belly; ears and nose a still deeper red-brown, the latter
at the tip edged with black. Ordinary tabby, dark gray, and
ticked.
Jet-black lines, not too broad, scarcely so wide as the
ground colour shown between, so as to give a light and
brilliant effect. When the black lines are broader than the
colour space, it is a defect, being then black marked with
colour, instead of colour marked with black. The lines must
be clear, sharp, and well-defined, in every way distinct,
having no mixture of the ground colour. Head and legs marked
regularly, the rings on the throat and chest being in no way
blurred or broken, but clear, graceful, and continuous; lips,
cushions of feet, and backs of hind-legs, and the ear-points,
black.
Narrow, long, graceful in line, neck rather long and slender;
shoulders receding, well-sloped and deep; legs medium length,
not thick nor clumsy; feet round and small.
Long, thick at the base and narrowing towards the end,
carried low, with graceful curve, and marked with black
rings.
Large, lithe, elegant in all its movements; hair smooth,
clean, bright, full of lustre, and lying close to the body,
all betokening full health and strength.
