I have a foster kitten, found at two weeks old as a orphan stray. He is 11 weeks old and looks different than any other kitten I’ve had, including his own siblings (a calico, orange tabby, grey tabby, black tabby, and black with mittens). A lot of people have said he looks like a opossum because his nose/face is so pointy! Is there a specific breed that has this trait? Not looking for a super official answer and I’m not getting a DNA test- just curious what you guys think.

Similar to Maine Coon faces as well. Long hairs and semi long hairs have the same origins, so a similarity does not mean recent breed but your kitty will have some of the same ancestors as the breed cats.

I agree with StefanZ and PushPurrCatPaws, with that wedge-shaped face and long hair, he is a very nice lookalike to a Norwegian Forest Cat. He's very cute!
