hi guys! this is our first cat bobbi, who's a couple months old. we just got her couple of days ago from a friend, and claimed that she is a himalayan. although after doing a bit of research on himalayans it seems like she has a different face shape (?), not quite round and furry like others we've seen. could she perhaps be a mix? or some other breed? thanks!

Himalayan is probably a fair enough description. Himalayans are essentially pointed persians. but they tend to have less flat faces than the other contemporary flat face persians.

How much purebred she is, we cant know, but she is a decent look alike, and the probability is high there is much persian in her background.

Call her for a himalayan mix if you wish, its a good description.
