A year ago I put a picture of my baby Arya she ended up being what I consider a long hair cat. However her structure has become dense and heavy compared to her sister. (short hair dilute calico tabby) structure plus her long fur has made me wonder if she has main coon or some other longhair ancestory in her? Of course without paperwork she is a domestic longhair , but just curious on what you may think she has mixed with her. Below are a few photos of her to capture her fulffy self but of course can't capture her dense body structure.

Thanks guys!

She could have some Maine Coon influence, which would give her that muscular body and square face. She's pretty!

Thank you! Yes, I'm just looking to see if anyone can tell from photos. Her body is so much more dense than her sisters it's hard to explain really. You would have to honestly pick her up & feel her mass/size compared to her short haired sister. ''Tis rather intriguing though, my longhaired baby is such a sweetheart!!

Grandious! Superb! She could get a job as a stand in for a Maine Coon any day of the year, as long as the role doesnt demand a tabby MCO...

You say sister. You mean, littermate or her "roomie", your other cat?

If the little one is biological sister, genes may fall differently in littermates, as long as they arent purebred but mixes.
