Long Or Short Hair?! Help

[Hollyp06]

Hey everyone!
This is a little 3/4 Siamese 1/4 ragdoll mainecoon cross..

Can anyone tell me if she'll have long hair like a ragdoll?
Or short like a Siamese!

Thank you

She seems to have some pretty long ear furnishings (those fluffs in the ears), so I'm guessing she'll end up as a longhair. She's a cutie!

Not entirely sure, so don't take my word for it. But, she's looking like she's gonna bee a long hair. She's quite fluffy. & so adorable it's crazy! (:

I have to agree with everyone here, I'd say long haired as well.

Adorable! Seems to have long haired kitten fluff so will probably be long haired as an adult. Maybe not as long as a pedigreed Maine coon cat, but longish.

Observe, if these parental siameses were purebred, ie purebred shorthairs, the kitten cant get longhair.

But if they are "siameses", i.e. being de facto pointed mixes of almost anything, yes, they may have carried the longhair gene - and thus, this kitten may easily have the genes for longhair.

Now, to tell the truth, even among purebreds, outcross to Balinese may be allowed, so theoretically pedigreed siameses MAY carry the longhair gene. But its rare exceptions.
