Siberian Cat?

Hi All,
I have 3 cats but this is about my newest addition Mojo.
She turned up at a sewage works a tiny bag of bones. I estimated her to be 8 maths ish.
I took her to a local vet, not microchipped, nothing wrong with her and they reckoned 2yrs old. She then went to cats protection when I decided to take her on. They reckoned 12-18mths. She has a triple coat with guard hairs about 2-2.5" long, big tufts on her pads. The closest bread to her is a siberian but she's really small. Any ideas anyone?
I'll get pics up when I reduce their size.
Thanks in advance

Pics of Mojo. You can make out the tufts on her pads and maybe the long guard hairs

She's absolutely lovely - and looks to me like a Domestic Long Hair (DLH), aka a long haired moggy.
We have two DLH cats - people regularly ask what breed they are - the answer is 'purebred Battersea mog'. 😻

She’s a moggy.

Mine are Siberian, they have the triple coat and the tufty feet.

Beautiful creatures but they do suffer in the heat. You might need a cooling mat when the weather picks up.

This is my Siberian, she is about 4.25kg, but many of the UK ones are as breeders neuter them at a very young age. As well as having a triple coat, floof between their toe that have very hairy ears with a very particular curve to their ear hairs to keep the heat in.
mine doesn’t suffer with the heat any more than my moggies do - but then she is a Siberian who only goes out in dry mild weather!
