What breed, coat color, and eye color would you resemble? (Not what you want to be.)

I think I'd be an Ruddy Abyssinian (with green eyes) who's lost a lot of her youthful sleekness!

Good question for some people, but cats don't have either my eye or hair colors. Although I am known as a redhead, it looks all brown when I am in a pool or shower. And there is no such thing as a brown-eyed cat. However if you read the book All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome you can see parts of my personality, including a strong preference for routine and hypersensitive touch receptors. So mentallly but not physically I am a domestic cat, with the obvious exception of being a good swimmer.

My hair is short and straight. I have no extreme features. I am short with a small frame and never overweight. My ancestry is European. I love to swim in water, but hate to drink it. I am absolutely horrible about changes - even getting a new locker at work made me livid (an example of how Asperger's syndrome makes some people like cats). What does that make me, if you could change my hair and eye colors?

I think I'd just be a simple domestic shorthair which is nothing exciting.  BUT I'd want the good life so I'd be perfectly happy as an indoor only housecat who never ever would even THINK about sneaking outside when a door was open.

I would be an indoor/outdoor, black, domestic short hair. That could probably use some socialization

I'd say a brown tabby with white markings, as my hair is brown, and my skin is so pale!

I'd be a brown tabby with hazel eyes, due to my brown hair and tan skin.

I'd be snuggly when you get to know me, but I'd be afraid of strangers. I would probably run under the bed when guests come over. :lol3:

Over the river and through the woods...
I would be a tortie (with the attitude ;) ) mainly because of my hair. If it is natural, it seriously is a mixture of colors, mainly red and brown with a few dark blond streaks thrown in. Of course, now gray is added into the mix, hence the "if it is natural" color comment! I have green eyes, so that fits. I would probably be small with a tendency to be overweight (but I wouldn't eat any of that diet crap! lol). 

I would not be a specific breed and would probably end up in a shelter due to a family cat getting pregnant (I was put up for adoption at birth and my parents adopted me at 5 months old). I would be shy to begin with, but if you give me a chance, I would win over your heart.

I would be a very spoiled and pampered Snowshoe cat with chocolate point markings and blue eyes.  The 4 white socks would be mandatory and I think a white chin

I would either be a pure black cat with gold eyes. OR a pure white cat with blue eyes - but then I might be deaf :scratch: HMMMM better rethink that one. :lol3:
