Singapura

Mochi is the world's smallest cat breed — and carries the biggest energy. Singapuras weigh 4-8 lbs but make up for it in personality, acrobatics, and an absolute refusal to nap when something interesting is happening. Sepia ticked coat, enormous eyes, maximum chaos.

Care Tips

  • Minimal grooming — just weekly wipe-down
  • Provide lots of vertical climbing space despite small size
  • Keep them mentally stimulated — they get bored fast
  • Good with other cats — benefits from a companion

Health Considerations

Be aware of these potential health issues common in Singapura cats:

  • Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PK deficiency) — test breeding cats
  • Uterine inertia in females — C-sections may be needed
  • Small litter sizes typical
  • Generally healthy and long-lived

Note: Regular veterinary check-ups are essential for maintaining your cat's health. Consult with your vet about breed-specific health screenings.
