tx for all the pics!   Lets try and analyse.

The easy first, she is a mackerel tabby, called also for striped or tigrered.

The head and body not the most common.  It reminds me much of british shorthair,  and may even be an near ancestor here.

The other possbility is a  persian / exotic in the background,  not too far back.

But without any proofs, she is a domestic, and you can say, somewhat a look alike to a british shorthair.

Re her colors Im a little struck, especiely as she looks somewhat different  on different photos...

I have two main tries here:   She is shaded, with some rusticism (reddish coloring, without true red color gene),  OR she may even be a diluted tortie...  Its not shrieking from her a tortie, a tortie, but this could be the explanation...

Unusual coloring, and Im as said  struck here....

Nice cat, and a good photographer!

EDIT:    Stuck, not struck.   Struck means something else, although could possibly be used in this context too...    :)

Thank you yes she's quite different when she was smaller I adopted her at two years old she was mostly diluted and had hardly any orange and the vets papers says she's an orange tabby which angerd me she had no orange then as a couple of years went by she's getting a little more orange. Everyday she is a different color. Thanks for the assistance! I love her no matter what color she is [emoji]10084[/emoji]️

How is her temperament?. Playful?.. Relaed and easigoing?.. Active?..Vocal?. Independent?. Clingy?. Likes belly rubs?. Likes to be held?

Vocal uses many different noises to express herself, intelligent, almost dog like understands some commands, likes to watch me do everything and be near me not a big fan of being held.
