A milestone reached for Star who was 1 year on the 2nd November. So I'm a little late in posting these pictures. Happy Birthday Starlight.

Blue Bobbies and Blue Bobcats
There are 13 different varities (sub-species) of Bobcat, the Lynx Rufus. Some vary in size, while others vary in colour. Most are shades of Red thru Brown. However this is not the only colours of coat that exist. We have the rarities of Black and White coats that nature sometimes produces, but along with that comes the Blue Bobcat. Unlike the White and Black which are anomolies, the blue bobcat is a regular occurance that frequents the Montana Region, and it is therefore considered a sub-species. At first glance it could be mistaken for a Canadian Lynx, but the 2 have differences that while subtle are noticable with the naked eye.
The Pixiebob standards define that they should resemble the Bobcat. Everyone strives to get the Rufus (Ruddy) colour in the coat of their cats to some degree. I too am very fortunate to have an extremely brick red girl and 2 boys with very strong Red Base coats. The current breed standards will not permit Blue Pixiebobs to compete at championship status. However, they can compete in New Breed Trait and within the Household Pets classes if they are Spayed/Neutered.
