The toyger is a breed of domestic cat, the result of breeding domestic short-haired tabbies to make them resemble a "toy tiger", as its striped coat is reminiscent of the tiger's. The breed's creator, Judy Sugden, has stated that the breed was developed in order to inspire people to care about the conservation of tigers in the wild. It was recognized for "registration only" by The International Cat Association in the early 2000s, and advanced through all requirements to be accepted as a full championship breed in May 2007. The Toyger Cat Society database lists 30 active Toyger breeders as of 2024.
