Nope, it's not just the photo - her head is narrow like that.

They are VERY slim (bit difficult to see in this pic as she is lying down), with extremely long legs and tail, and really high hind-quarters, so they look a bit like a greyhound (OMG - don't ever tell Ally I compared her to a dog - she'll NEVER talk to me again)!

They are really unusual looking, but unfortunately here in Bahrain they are not poplular pets - most pet owners here seem to prefer persians - so they are mostly found in feral groups. (Ally made her way into my garden when she was TEENY, and decided to take over the house, and allow us to stay and become her slaves!
LOL)
