Tonkinese — Lap Lounger

A blend of the Burmese and Siamese, the Tonkinese is a toned-down version of the always-chatting, extroverted Siamese and a more outgoing version of the usually shy Burmese. Extremely agile and graceful, the Tonk is easy to train and quickly masters walking on a leash and playing fetch.
