Chantilly Tiffany

Picture
The Chantilly Tiffany is a feline with a semi-foreign body style and a full semi-long coat. The coat is silky, soft and smooth; the lack of undercoat usually makes grooming simpler than that of cats with an undercoat. Somewhat a late bloomer, the Chantilly Tiffany is slow to mature and usually does not come into its full stature until about two years old. The eye color of the feline intensifies with age.The head should be a broad, modified wedge with gentle curves. it should have a medium length nose and a strong,broad, short softly squared muzzle and defined but not obvious whisker pads.


Somewhat a late bloomer, the Chantilly Tiffany is slow to mature and usually does not come into its full statute until about two years old. The eye color of the feline intensifies with age. The Chantilly Tiffany is a moderate-sized semi-foreign cat with a semi-longhaired, full coat and plumed tail. Its long ear tufts are one of the most striking features. It is accepted in a variety of colors, including blue, chocolate, cinnamon, lilac, and fawn, in both solid and tabby patterns, though chocolate is the most well known.

The breed is friendly, loyal, and affectionate, though occasionally reserved with strangers. It is neither placid nor overly active -- "moderate" is a word which crops up when discussing the Chantilly Tiffany personality as well as its conformation. The breed was originally registered during the 1970s in ACA as Foreign Longhair, though the name was changed to Tiffany. ACA dropped the breed due to lack of registrations. 

It was found later to be naturally occurring in Canada and the breed was resurrected, but by then a different breed called "Tiffanie" was being shown in Britain. The name "Chantilly" was adopted instead. It is still a rare breed. Originally found only in chocolate, today’s Tiffany Chantilly comes in a range of colors and patterns. The color, like the coat, develops late.

Originally found only in the color of chocolate, Tiffany Chantilly now occurs in a range of colors including Chocolate, blue, cinnamon, lilac, and fawn. Accepted patterns are solid, mackerel, ticked, and spotted tabby. The color is rich; shading in solids may occur toward the underside. The overall impression of the ideal Chantilly would be a semiforeign cat of striking appearance resulting from the combination of its rich color and full, silky semi-longhair coat, plumed tail, contrasting neck ruff, and ear furnishings.
