Just scrolling through as I’m looking for a car to adopt and saw this cat on a small rescue site and I want to meet her with a view to adopt, I am going to enquire . Wondered what breed she looks like?

Can I please hijack this thread for a moment for a cat related question? Is it true that all domestic cats, regardless of breed or ancestry, have tabby markings ? I've heard this is so; even solid-coloured cats show the markings in certain light conditions, i.e. spots and/or stripes and the 'M' on the forehead.

Thankyou.

All domestic cats carry the “tabby” genes that create the tabby patterns but some cats have other genes that mask the tabby pattern eg all the hairs are one colour. You can sometimes see ghost markings on solid colour cats if there are tiny variations in the colour of the hairs.

A British longhaired! Just like my gorgeous boy!!! He is huge (over 6kg with giant paws)

Oh wow. He’s ruler of the universe.

Just a standard long haired domestic cat. Not a breed such as a Maine coon.

ChilledProsecco · 17/01/2025 20:46

So many magnificent Floofsters on this thread!! X

Topjoe19 · 17/01/2025 20:46

What I would call a fluffbomb. Of the upper crust variety. I love him!

Middlemarch123 · 17/01/2025 20:48

She’s a British longhair. She’s gorgeous. They are friendly and very sweet. How old is she?

Thankyou for the tabby answers. As you were.

It's a Sylvester.

Middlemarch123 · 17/01/2025 21:24

@RedLouise9 I’ll have her if you don’t want her! Get lots of treats, Dreamies is crack for cats, and a brush, because she’ll shed hair in the warmer months. And toys to play with. She might hide up for the first week or so, just leave her to settle.
I want another cat, I haven’t got one in that flavour. (Ignoring Persian shooting me daggers on the pillow next to me).
Enjoy!

It's a floof, a beautiful floof. Also known as a domestic long hair.

TroysMammy · 17/01/2025 21:30

A floofy moggie as opposed to a smooth moggie. A lovely looking cat but all that fur. I had a fluffy dwarf lop rabbit who lived indoors and there was fluff everywhere like tumbleweed making its way across the wooden floor.

RosesAndHellebores · 17/01/2025 21:32

Long haired moggy.

Our old black and white boy (not very white) had ghost tabby markings. He was short haired and huge. 7.5kg! He wasn't so much fat as huge.

TheDogsMother · 17/01/2025 21:34

What a lovely cat. I always assumed mine was a moggie as he was semi feral from a farm. He was a big boy.
