This is my cat Mickey who is 11 years old. His mother was a stray we adopted when we were living in Miami. Mickey looks just like his mother except she was gray where he is black. Mickey is a shorthair cat with big green eyes, big ears, a long nose, and a very angular face, as I hope you can see in the pics. He has a very mild temperment but a very loud meow. Also, although he has gotten fatter in his old age, but he used to be incredibly long and lean. Sometimes I think he might be part Siamese, but what do you all think?

P.S. I apologize if I did not post this in the right spot!

Awww bless him! With his lovely long face I'd have no problem with believing that he may have some Siamese/Oriental lurking somewhere in his ancestry, even if we can't ever know for certain. He's a beautiful cat, very striking!

Wow, he looks like he could be Ling's littermate! She was long/lean when young but developed into more of an American SH body now at 2 yrs old


He's a handsome domestic shorthair. There could be some oriental/siamese in the background with the slendar body. We think Ling's mom had oriental/siamese in her - she was more refined then any of our other barn cats
