Adopting a Tonkinese

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Tonkinese - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

It can cost $50 to $150 to adopt a Tonkinese from a shelter or rescue organization. The adoption fee often covers an initial exam, preventatives, microchipping, spay/neuter, and vaccines. Conversely, buying a Tonkinese from a breeder can be prohibitively expensive and typically costs $700 to $1,500.

The easiest way to adopt a Tonkinese is through a shelter or cat-oriented rescue. A great place to start is with a breed search on Adopt a Pet, which will show you all the available Tonkinese cats in your search radius.

Tonkinese fun facts

Fun Facts:

The Tonkinese is named after the Southeast Asian Bay of Tonkin.

The Tonkinese was the first ever cat breed to have been developed in Canada.

All modern Burmese cats can be traced back to Wong Mau, a cat transported in 1930 from Burma to the States, but funnily enough she was found to be a Siamese/Burmese hybrid -- i.e. a Tonkinese in today's cat terminology.
