Hey! I know that most likely none of you are no professionals at determining cat breeds, but could some of you help me get a rough idea of what breed my cat might be?

She is a small black cat, and her physique is fairly thin and delicate in appearance. A very notable part of her body is her head. My sister describes her head as very flat, jokingly saying that her head is like a pancake. Her nose is also very small and somewhat mushed into her face. She doesn't have an underbite, but her mouth always looks like she's frowning, as if she were constantly pouting in a petty manner.

Her fur is not pure black either. She has a few tiny patches of white fur scattered around. In the sunlight, you can see that she has blotches of red fur all over, but then she has red vertical stripes rather than spots around her stomach like a tabby. Most of her skin is pitch black, her nose and paw pads are black.

Her eye color is a combination of green and yellow, sometimes looking gold depending on the lighting. In her eyes, she also has very thin brown squiggly rings that look like someone drew them on. Her eye shape seems rather versatile.

I'm positive that she's a mixed breed rather than a pure breed. Some breeds I have wondered about her having in her blood are Bombay and Classic/Traditional Siamese (not the modern Siamese)

Aw, she's so pretty!

The vast majority of cats have no purebreed background at all. Cats mostly do cat things without any human intervention. So she's almost certainly a domestic shorthair, which is what we call cats with no purebred heritage :D.
