Where are Singapura cats from? Where are Singapura cats from?

The Singapura breed as it’s known today originated in 1975 when two cat breeders brought three Singapuras back to America from a trip to Singapore and began a breeding program. However, another American cat breeder later discovered that those original cats may have actually been registered as Abyssinians, and others speculate that the Singapura was a cross between an Abyssinian and a Burmese.
