Tonkinese Colours
All photos are copyright of Linda Vousden, unless stated otherwise.

The Tonkinese come in a lovely range of clean and bright colours. Perhaps you prefer the smouldering browns or  smokey blues; the mouth-watering chocolates and cinnamons; the light and almost ethereal lilacs, fawns and caramels; or the warm glowing reds, creams and apricots. Or perhaps you like to mix them up a little by adding the tiger element of the tabbies - or the unpredictable kaleidoscope of the tortoiseshells?  There is  something to appeal to everyone.

This page is a work in progress - I aim to post as many pictures of the different colours as possible, when possible.

Some people think that the further down the generations you breed, the less solid and pointed coat-patterns you produce - this is 
     genetically impossible.
