I need a bit of help figuring out my kitty's breed and coloring!
When we first got him we were told he was a domestic medium hair. I'm sort of obsessed with genes and coloring although I know little to nothing about it. I did notice that he seemed more like a long hair than a medium hair - he has more fluffy fur distributed than a typical medium hair cat would, in my opinion. I was also thinking he may have tabby genes as well (looking at the faded "m" on his head as well as the faded darker stripes on his legs)
He has a variation of different colors (I've tried drawing him and it was quite difficult because of all the different shades, lol): I see both mouse gray and blue gray on him and I actually see straight up brown on his sides. He has cream/white coloring on his belly, insides of his legs, and some of his face. His belly fur is a little wavy but I know that's common in medium-long haired cats.
It may be completely far fetched but I was also considering he might have Nebelung in his genes. His eyes are a pale green and it may not look like it in the photos (maybe in the first one) but he has a thin layer of silver fur on his legs, I've noticed.
I don't mind whatever breed he is, I just find genes very cool! (His name is Ashes, by the way!!)
