Chocolate Chestnut Red Or Yellow Tabby Striped Short-hair
POINTS
HEAD 10
Small, broad across and between the eyes, rounded above,
below tapering towards the lips, nose rather long than short,
ears of medium size, narrow and rounded at apex, broad at the
base.

gold, or yellow, in the order of the above names,

COLOUR 20
Deep, rich, reddish-brown, bright red, or yellow, in the
order as above, brighter inside the legs and belly; ears and
nose deeper colour, the latter at the tip red, edged with
chocolate.
MARKINGS 20
Dark, rich brown or chocolate, lines not too broad, scarcely
so wide as the ground colour shown between, so as to give a
light and brilliant effect; when the lines are broader than
the colour space it is a defect, being then light colour
markings on dark brown or chocolate, red or dark yellow,
instead of colour marked with deeper colour. Head and legs
marked regularly, the rings on the throat and chest being in
no way blurred or broken, but clear, graceful, and
continuous; lips, cushions of feet, and the back of
hind-legs, and the ear-points, dark. Yellow tabby, the
cushions of feet red, or light red.
FORM 10
Narrow, long, graceful in line, neck rather long and slender,
shoulders receding, well-sloped, and deep, legs medium
length, not thick nor clumsy, feet round and small.
TAIL 5
Long, thick at the base, and narrowing towards the end,
carried low, with graceful curve, and marked with dark rings.
SIZE AND CONDITION 10
Large, lithe, elegant in all its movements; hair smooth,
clean, bright, full of lustre, and lying close to the body,
all betokening full health and strength.
