My cat,& a little controversy so, what is she???

Thread Starter 
So, I introduced my cat Peaches here and also to some of my cat pals who started a very catty argument. Some insisted she was a Siamese tortie colourpoint. I think not! I said, she is a Tortie/Calico Siamese mix because she has white paws, one seal point arm one dilute, yellow arm with grey flecks and an orange splash on one ear. Then my vet insisted no, not tortie! she is only a calico/ Siamese mix because of the white. I think its been fun, she is unusual and hard to describe, so what do you think?

She is a lovely seal-tortie & white pointed domestic shorthair. Very striking markings. You should think about showing her if she is spayed and not declawed.

I would show her like Martice said.
She is beautiful.
I also have a Seal Tortie Point and White cat but she is a sphynx.

Agree with above, seal tortie and white domestic.

She's quite unique looking - some of the most unique patterns/markings show up in domestics.

Actually Proud, she is NOT a Snowshoe mix - Snowshoes are a specific breed of cat with strict markings. Not every pointed cat with white on them is a Snowshoe or even part Snowshoe. They are simply pointed and white domestic cats.

This is what a real Snowshoe cat is (and they are rare because there is not a lot of breeders out there).

My friend bred snowshoes and she is not a snowshoe.
You do not even see manyof them at the shows.

She is simply a work of art! She looks like a Siamese, whose God brushed some color right on her nose, just to make her that much prettier!
You got yourself a one of a kind in there!

Yeah! She already do poses like a champ!
So train also with folks standing around and commenting, while somebody draws in her och pokes on her...

At next step, train with her standing on a cold, semi wet table... As the judges tables are swept with antiseptics between every cat.

If she behaves and enjoys the shows, she has the potential to be a great show winner with her looks.


(Although I cant GUARANTEE she wins every time: there are also others beautiful domestics out there. Some of them had me almost fainting not to mention peeing... )

I'm just glad I have an Ocicat and not a HHP if she was shown

Just ask us about showing - we have plenty of people in here that show both household pets and purebreds and can help you with questions.

I learn something new every time I come here. For some reason I had thought that snowshoe was a color pattern rather than a breed. Thanks for the information.

As a shelter kitty she's most likely a DSH, not a Siamese. As I've said before, she's absolutely stunning and looks to have a very, very sweet face.

What a pretty cat!! You are so lucky! I also think she would steal a show!


I also wanted to say that those drawings look like they may be quite cute too. But it's hard to tell.

I'm usually not into tortiepoints but this one truly has very beautiful face! I also suggest on showing her, she is gorgeous.
