History
Many historical records that show a cat with short legs. One of them was in 1944, a veterinarian named HE Williams describes four generations of cats with short legs that live wild in the UK. The cats are alive with the sound and moves like a mongoose. Unfortunately, these cats have disappeared during World War II.
Around the year 1953 Max Von Egon Thiel, a German, reported seeing a short-legged cat in Stalingrad. Then for years there was no longer the development of short-legged cats. New in 1983 occurred Munchkin significant developments.
In 1983, a music teacher from Louisiana named Sandra Hochenedel, find the two cats are trapped under the truck because the dog chased. Both cats are currently in a state of pregnancy / pregnant. A cat is gray while the other is black. The two cats, named Blueberry, and Blackberry. Both these cat-sized feet short, not like normal cats.
Some children also have short legs Blackberry as its parent. One child was sent to a friend named Kay LaFrance sandra. Then the cat, named Toulouse. Kay then breed the Toulouse and make a lot of short-legged cats.
Munchkin cats listed today largely the descendants of Blackberry and Toulouse.

Munchkin recently acquired the status as a new race of TICA cat. Meskupun status is still new, Munchkin cats have existed for several decades.
The term itself appears Munchkin Wizard of Oz when the film was at its peak of popularity. In the film there is the dwarf / pigmy called Munchkin. Since then this term began to stick on the short-legged cats.
Munchkin Characteristics Short legs in this race-related genetic mutations, not because of manipulation by humans. Gene that causes the short legs on a cat Munchkin same gene that causes the short legs on purebred Daschund (teckel) and Welsh Corgi. Unlike the two races of the dog, Munchkin never experienced interference on spinal anatomy associated with a short body.
Munchkin cats are highly variable, can be long or short haired. Munchkin cat mated with a lot of other races, so their children can vary greatly. There is currently no specific standards that describe this race. The challenge for the breeders to generate Munchkin with genetic traits that are consistent.
Because this race is still in development stage, the main feature / standards to include Munchkin cat is short legs.
A geneticist at the TICA (The International Cat Association) named Dr. Solveig Pflueger, stating that the short leg on Munchkin caused by autosomal dominant gene mutation. During seven years of research, he did not menemupakn bone disorder in kittens can cause defects or death.
Temperament Munchkin very playful and chase toys. One of the things that cause Munchkin preferred way to sit on the back legs of a rabbit with a similar position. Like most other cats, Munchkin is also easy to adapt to humans or other animals.
