Question about a breed

Does anyone know what breed of cat is the one who has hair that stands up straight on the tips of the ears? I've seen this somewhere and was curious. My daughter found this beautiful little kitten who is long-haired, huge paws, thin-narrow face and hair that comes to a point on the tips of her ears. I will have to take a picture of her. Any guesses? Thanks.

Sounds like a Maine Coon cat to me

Hey, thanks!

That describes what are called Lynx Tips, and you will see it on more than one breed..ie. (and imo, nothing is sillier to see than this) American Curls will sometimes have lynx tips...so, due to their curled ears, the hair points out over the back of their head or off at an angle over their back.

I love lynx tips on any kitty!
