I know someone who has recently gotten her cats recognized as a New Breed. She has been breeding them with Intelligence as her Primary goal. Then, some extra Good Luck endowed them with Thumbs! Cats with Thumbs.That trait also allowed her to add a few extra parameters to the Intelligence Testing.Some of the cats have apparently developed quite the talent for Opening Latches and cabinet doors, thanks to the gripping ability the Thumbs give them. (The Thumbs are a side effect of Polydactyl genetics).I believe the official name for the new breed is “Silverdust” due to the color of their coat. They spring from a series of crosses between mostly Oriental Shorthair and Siamese breeds.
