This is as much for myself as it is for you guys, I can never remember what all the petz abreviations and new fangled words mean. So i thought why not put them all in one place so I know where to find the answer? and so the Petz Dictionary was created. I know it is not very extensive at the moment, so if you can think of anything that i've missed email me with a definition, and some kind of evidence that shows that the word actually exists, i.e. a Breed Standard, or a mention on a forumn, and i will happily add it to this little collection.


AAC
An abreviation of "Automatic Adoption Centre"
Chi
Shortened form of Chihuahua.
Gypsy
A cat with the body of a calico, with only two colours of fur. One solid colour should dominate, whilst the other should only appear on one jowl, one ear, one foot, and one band in the tail. These markings can be the same colour as the body. They can also have a chest patch or a face stripe, but not both. The term was created by Madcapp of Madcapp's Madhouse.
Houla Spots
A houla spot is one that is a darker shade of the same colour as the main coat colour. For example a pet that has a bright white coat, and darker white spots, would be said to have houla spots.

Patchwork
A cat with the body of a calico, which has only two coat colours, a main coat colour, and a second colour on which creates patches on its body. The main coat colour should be black or white. The cat should also have a chest patch and face stripe. The patchwork was created into a standard by the owner of "FUBAR".
Selfie Eyelids
The eyelids are the same colour as the main body colour
Slothy Eyes
The eyes are 173 or 174 on the colour chart. Commonly called lavender.
Tamsin
There are many different views for what a tamsin is. My view is one that was more common a few years ago in that the dog should have a dali body and some markings other than spots, this could be chiuhuauah markings, anything really. However the most common view around at the moment is that a tamsin should have a dali body, and mutt spots including a chest patch. For a more detailed standard go here...
