The head is slightly smaller than in proportion to the body. In profile the nose is long but with a small chin and should add to the cats wild appearance.

Ears: Ears are large and alert with a wide base and slightly rounded tips. The tops of the ears are moderately hairy on the inside. The base of the ears should almost meet in the front center of the head.

Eyes: The eyes are somewhere between oval and almond shaped. The color should be a rich yellow, green, golden or caramel brown.



Neck: Thick and muscular as well as long.

BODY:
Torso: Long and almost oriental but more massive. When viewed from the side the chest and flank form a long triangle. When viewed from the front the cat appears narrow due to the extreme length of legs, depth of body and length of neck.
