Characteristics & Temperment of the Tonkinese Breed

Tonkinese are renowned for their social nature and tender attitude. Tonkinese cats make delightful companions and are loved for their playful, lively, and curious nature. Their active interest in family activities and their taste for interactive play make them a popular choice among cat lovers seeking a warm and loving pet. They get along wonderfully with kids and even other household animals! This cat is also an intensely intelligent feline and can even learn basic tricks, like fetching and giving you high fives.

Due to their social nature, the Tonkinese will not do well in a household where their human companions are gone for long periods.
