Publisher's Synopsis
Short-legged and unusual, Munchkin cats are a relatively recent cat breed. The terms "sausage cat" and "midget cat" are also used to describe these small felines.
Leg length in Munchkin cats is typically much shorter than in other cat breeds due to a genetic abnormality. They may have tiny legs, but they make up for it by being extremely lively, energetic, and nimble.
It was not until the 1990s that people started taking notice of this particular kind of cat, and since then, their popularity has only grown. They have a playful and friendly nature and may be found in a wide range of colors and patterns.
Concerns about Munchkin cats' health and well-being have been voiced because of their unusually tiny legs, however research has proved that this trait poses no health risks.
The Munchkin cat breed, in general, is a fascinating and adorable one that has won the hearts of many people around the world who are passionate about cats.
