She has the looks of a siamese old type, nowadays called for Thai, she has. The coloration is prob Seal, meaning black.
But what she is, she may be a mix of almost anything, as long as both her parents are carriers of the point gene. The only we know one of them must have carried black..
So formally it will always be seal point domestic short hair. unless you have paperwork and certificates on her, or at least, solid proofs of her ancestry..
Look. In the purebred russian blue, there is born now and then a pointed kitten, similiar to yours, although most often with the blue color of the point.
Why? They used a couple of blue pointed siameses way back 70 years ago in the RB breeding programme. But they havent used known point carriers for 50-60 years... And STILL they pop up now and then, usually one kitten of four in such a "both carriers" litter.
