Hello! I'm new to the site, but I was wondering if anyone had any idea of what breed of cat I have. I beleive he's just a tabby, but I wanted a 2nd opinion.
Milo is 6 years old, 14lbs solid-no fat. He's completely white w/green, sometimes yellow eyes. He's short-haired, but sheds like it's his job.
He's loveable, but he can be possessive of me and his toys. I think he might be bipolar-lol. He'll be completely calm 1 minute- then all of a sudden his pupils get big, and I've got about 10secs to get him away from me, or he'll attack. Then he's fine the next minute.
Here's a couple of pics of him.(I apologise if they don't come out-I've never posted before.)

Welcome to our community of caring people who love cats.
Milo is a really handsome cat.

I love the "M" on his collar.
You boy is not a tabby....tabbies are the striped kitties.

Tabby is a colour, not a breed. Your cat is a white domestic shorthair.

Sounds to me like he might have a case of "overstimulation aggression," too, which is quite common.

Very pretty cat. I'll bet that fur feels really thick.
