I just adopted a 9 week old kitten from somebody who didnt want him. He had no answers for what kind of cat? He lets me do whatever to him like a ragdoll. Hes fluffy but not to fluffy. Has the ears and tail of a siamese and has a white mark above lip and all white paws like a snowshoe. Im so confused but so curious to what he is pleasr help?

Welcome to the site :wavey:

Could you post some pictures of this gorgeous baby ? We will be able to help more if we can see exactly what he looks like :D

Lol :lol3:

You must have been posting them as I was replying to you :lol3:

What a gorgeous kitten :rbheart:

He does have a ragdoll look about him but he's not 100% ragdoll. So I think maybe he could be cross between a ragdoll and a domestic.

His pattern is pointed but also tabby which is called a lynx point pattern ;)

Interesting... thank you so much. But you dont think he has siamese? Even thought his ears and tail markings are? Can u tell if hes a medium or short haired?

I don't really see Siamese in him except he has the same pointed pattern they have. But other breeds and domestics have a pointed pattern too, it's not just Siamese that have that colouring and markings :D. He really looks more rounder faced like a Birman or ragdoll to me ;)

He looks like he's going to be medium/semi longhaired

thank you for the help I really think your spot on with the birmen or ragdoll mix of some sort I was also hoping he would stay fluffly and longhaired!

I don't think he necessarily has any purebred in him (although he could), because my cousin's farm cat used to have kittens that looked like that, one or two in every litter. So he could be a domestic who happened to get the pointed and white spotting genes from his parents. He's a gorgeous boy no matter what!

He is beautiful now but will be a gorgeous  adult cat. I think mixed cats are just as pretty as  pure breeds.
