So I am fairly certain he is just a domestic short hair. He was actually not a very handsome kitten, but some how he has transformed in to a handsome stately man cat. At the end of may he will be a year and a half old. He weighs 21 SOLID pounds, not fat or chubby, his back is 1.75 ft off the ground and he is about 2.25 ft long (not including his tail)...in other words he is HUGE. He walks with a stalking gait like he is hunting something all the time, is quick and always wants to be on the highest point in the room. Honestly if you watch him or look at him do things he looks like a mountain lion or panther. Despite the fact that he is gray, he really truly resembles a wild cat (not just a feral outside cat, but a Big Game type cat). The shape of his face, and body (his back his slightly higher over his back legs (they are a little longer), he can jump higher and further than any cat I have ever seen (I've seen a lot of cats). So my question is: Is it possible that he has some type of wild cat in his gene pool way down the line that is showing its presence? I know all house cats have tendencies of their ancestors, but this is different. Every one that sees him says the same thing. Are there any other people with this same situation? What have you found out? Also, aside from that what breed does he favor most?
Thanks!
