What breed do I look like?

Gypsy

About 9 months ago I found Gypsy at the humane society, she was found as a stray. She looked quite different from other cats as well as her personality. Out of curiosity I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on the possible type of breed.

In my opinion she looks like a lynx tabby colorpoint. Eyes are blue and she has the M on her forehead with the same on her ears. The humane society just listed her breed as Siamese mix. She is such a sweetheart!! Thanks

Lynx Point
by: Siamese owner

You do have a lynx point Siamese. She will darken as she gets older. My little lynx is now a little over a year old and he was as light as her when I got him at 5 months.

Now he has darkened into the seal coloring (still showing lynx points). I have been told Siamese can take up to 2 years to develop their full color and points.

Your cat looks like a Bengal crossed with a domestic cat, either by one or two generations.

Gorgeous photo

Hi Lindsay and thank you for your photo of Gypsy. She's adorable!

In my opinion the Humane Society were correct to list her as a Siamese mix, as without proper papers it isn't possible to tell whether a cat like Gypsy is a full Siamese or not. However, all cats with this coloring and blue eyes will have at least some Siamese genes, and you are right that she is a lynx (tabby) point.

To me, it's difficult to tell from the photo whether she is a seal or blue lynx point (in the picture she looks more like a blue), but if anyone has any opinions on this, do join in!
