The photos not good enough, but I suspect she is a burmenese point.  

   Im not saying she is a burmenese, may have been two point genes wandering, and whom now met each other... Such is very common with the siamese point gene.  Burmese point gene isnt that common, so it doesnt happen often.   But a mixed point, one from siamese one from burmese, isnt that rare, if you learned to see them...

More good photos needed.

ps.   Which color is correct?  Both photos seems to have different colors.    I did looked mostly on the first photo, where the head seems to have another nuance than the body.

The color blue comes in many breeds. Pointed cats have blue eyes. I would say your baby is a very lovely Domestic Shorthair in the color blue...

I see, so its just to forget about my speculations about a possible burmanese point mix.  What we have left is a somewhat Russian Blue - alike.

I see even some silvery tipped hairs, so typical for the RB.

What to do with these different color eyes, I dont know.  Even if oneof the them is green.
