Hi there!
New to this forum.
Wanting to see if anyone can see some distinctive breed traits in my "Domestic Long Hair" boy I adopted a few months ago!

I've attached a bunch of photos (from the media gallery thing. I hope I've done this right) (edit: It didn't work how I thought, I uploaded the photos separately here xP)
and I was wondering what you all think :3
I've had people say he looks like a Siamese, Bombay, but moreso Maine Coon because of how fast and how big he's getting.
He's already bigger than our near 2 year old tabby cat, and he's only 7 months!

but it makes no difference to me.
He's my slinky lil man.

His personality is one I've never seen in a cat before.
He's outgoing, friendly, he'll greet any and all people (strangers included), he plays fetch, has to be right near you, and incredibly smart (He's figured out how to use the door handles!)

He's also technically my first ever cat.
I had co-caring rights with my partner's cats, including our tabby cat we adopted last year.

He also has had his fur thin out a bit since we are going into summer.
He had a thicker coat and mane during the colder months.

He's so sleek and handsome! We can perhaps compare him to a Turkish Angora as a lookalike, although this is a very rare breed, so any Turkish Angora influence would be very unlikely. I don't see any Siamese in him, as these are a colorpointed breed for starters, but are also short-haired and have a more slender body type. Bombays are also shorthaired, and they have a more muscular body than your boy, who is pretty lean. Maine Coon not really either, as they would have a more square-shaped face and thicker fur. Your boy is gorgeous no matter what!
