ive had my cat for about two years now ever since it was a baby and i dont remember what breed the mother was, nor the father so im having diffuculty finding out what it is. when it was born its ears were odd looking like they were bent towards the ground. it eventually grew out of this but i think that it helps detemining what breed it belongs too. i have some pictures(which are not that great =/ sorry!) and if you all could help me id greatly appreciate it

Looks like a very pretty domestic short haired tiger tabby (dsh- just your average pretty tiger tabby kitty) He is quite handsome!
What's your kitty's name?

Its an ordinary tabby mix - pretty. But newborn kittens ears don't stand up. The are kinda flat or folded looking for awhile till they start growing.

what a lovely name for him! he is very handsome!
also when newborn kittens are born they are blind and deaf (i foster newborn kittnes) at a few weeks of age, their eyes begin to open and their ears begin to slowly open as well so that's why your kittys ears looked folded over to you when he was little

And he looks like a mackeral tabby -- meaning the stripes on his sides are thin and go straight up and down. He's beautiful!

Tabby cats melt my heart! I had a cat named Bubba who was my tabby boy. I loved him with all my heart! He was born in my home and never left me for 14 1/2 years.

I want a another little striper baby so bad!

You have a very beautiful boy. May you have many wonderful years together

With a name like Tsavo, are you sure he's not a man eating lion?!?!

He's a very pretty standard or random-bred DSH Tabby (which, IMO, is the best kind of kitty on the planet!). WHat a gorgeous guy!!
