I wanted to bring this over here! They are doing it at the dogs side. I know we don't have quiet as many cat breeds. So with that, I would like to include WILD cats as well, lions, tigers, you name it, you find it, and it's of the feline family add it, or you can do domesticated breeds. :)

I will start with this one, tell me what breed you think it is, if you win, then you get to post a breed for the rest of us to guess.

I am in no way an expert, at all, on cat breeds, other than some obvious ones, but for some reaon I want to say, an american curl? I don't know why, the fur looks curly to me. I don't even know if thats why curls are called that LOL! anyway I think the cat is still fairly young from the size of its ears, it has not quite grown into them yet!

so what breed is it?

Nope, not a Devon Rex, or an American Curl. Try again. :)

It's a rarer breed, if you will.

The Devon Rex is close however, in reference to the coat :)

Cornish Rex?

Nope. The coat pattern has nothing to do with it, these cats can come in any colour or pattern, size, it's just all about the curly/wavey fur.

Would it be a LaPerm cat ?

Lailamara: Very good you got it, a LaPerm! :)

You can go ahead and post your breed/species for everyone to guess. :)

lailamara-congratulations!

angelzoo-wow, you sure did make a good guessing game!
I got mixed, up, for some reason I thought Kathoo was the one that had posted the guess game, and when she posted that it was a rex, I thought that was the answer...duh! (wake up mary!):rolleyes:

Here's another picture where it's clearer to see what possible origins are.

Pretty cat, but I don't have any idea what breed. Is it a rare breed?
BastetsMum

Turkish Van?
lailamara

Bastet's mom you are on the right track. Some more clues...... Oriental type cat (longhair and shorthair forms) exhibiting the Van/Harlequin pattern.It is very obscure!! and only recognized recently.
Felicia's Mom

My guess is Turkish Angora.

they will do anything to come up with more breeds, and more cats.. mad scientists is more like it!
Carole, no raps on the knuckles ok? :D
bluekat

I thought Turkish Angora too
I'm probably wrong, but is it a Javanese? The face reminds me of one.

Bluekat you are probably as close as anyone will get. I've really picked a very obscure breed. They only breed them in Britain . If no one can guess I'll post the answer. Their breed name appealed to me as its a place I'd like to visit (almost did) and I liked the description of their personalities ..."Scatterbrained, demonstrative and demanding of human attention at all times," especially the scatterbrained, as that would be a cat matched perfectly to me !!!:rolleyes:

It's a Seychellois

I'm not really good at all those cat breed but I do know the most propular breed of cats. My quess would be La perms. Is that the right answer? What a nice looking cat, the fur looks really unique and different. It's like curly fur, it's different then the other cats fur. Soo what the cat breed?
