Oh, it is *so* cute! Please don't turn it out; maybe you could find it a
home. It doesn't look like any Burmese I've ever seen, and the Singapura have big eyes like that. But those ears! It's adorable. "Karen" wrote in message ... Holy cow! Very unusal. Looks like some kind of Somali mix to me, but wow, how different. Do you think you can give the little kitty a home? Definitely an interesting looking cat. "Niel Humphreys" wrote in message ... Was just in my warehouse and when I moved a bag of packing material I got growled at from underneath it by a little kitty. It didn't run and allowed me to pick it up. Looking at it I would imagine it's not a general moggie, the most striking thing are the huge eyes. I've uploaded a couple of pics to my webspace, would appreciate it if someone could ID the breed? My first thought is Burmese... http://www.snowdoncomputers.co.uk/Kit1.jpg http://www.snowdoncomputers.co.uk/Kit2.jpg Its coat is spotless but it is a little on the thin side so am not sure if it owns anyone, certainly not seen anything like it in our village before. -- Niel H |

I think Kaeli got it with the Singpurrha [sp] idea. |

The kitten in the pics, looks nice and unique. I like unique things. Cats and Women are both gone at night ``bigbad`` |

No, seriously, it looks a bit like abyssinian, bit like somali and bit like rex. |

I think Kaeli got it with the Singpurrha [sp] idea. possibly, it could fit the general type for Singapura and the "very large eyes and very large ears", but it doesn't look like it has the markings around the nose and eyes - nose- and eyeliner if you will - that it's supposed to? I read that "simulations" of singapura with Burmese/Aby have been tried - but not accepted breed-wise, maybe this is it - after all Neil who met kitty in furson got impression of a Burmese Now we just have to hope Neil finds out somehow and let us know - inquiring minds need to know! -- lewe lewemi at yahoo dot se | cats' pics: photos.yahoo.com/lewemi |

Ticked coats in Burmese are disqualifying faults. http://www.snowdoncomputers.co.uk/Kit1.jpg http://www.snowdoncomputers.co.uk/Kit2.jpg Might be a mix, but it looks an awful lot like a Singapura. Hard to tell from those angles, though. http://www.berliner-pro-kat.de/rassen/singapura.htm http://www.singapuracatclub.co.uk/ Some other ideas: Singapura mix - http://www.singapuracatclub.co.uk/ Abyssinian mix - http://www.abychatcats.co.uk/ British Shorthair mix - http://www.micimiao.it/corto/British.htm My first thought was an Abyssinian mix, but it sure looks a lot like the Singapura in your first link. Never heard of that breed before. |

She's a Blue Abyssinian - the owner's the local vicar and he has 2 of them. His house is just across the field from my warehouse so all explained and kitty has a good home after all - just not mine. -- Niel H http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Snowdon-Computers |

Glad to hear that, Neil! Good on you for following through and finding
her human. Her agouti coat is very unusual in color, but I still thought of the Abby, but those "Betti Davis eyes" really threw me, so was thinking she was possibly a cross between the Abby and Singapura breeds. Blue Abyssinia must be very new to the breed. Most unique feline I have seen in a very long time. The Vicar is truly a fortunate man to be owned by two of them. Hemma |
