By default I would say "domestic longhair", because we don't really know her ancestry, but there's a chance she does have Persian somewhere back there. She doesn't have the round eyes, but she does have the round body and head and the sort of short nose, so.. you know, it's possible.
She's gorgeous. Her coloring is dilute tortoiseshell-and-white, just like my Christy.

Nope, a blue bi-color.
Catlover1990, She looks Persian or Persian mix. Color : Blue Tortie and White. Her coat doesn't look as long as some Persians , but maybe it's the season. Or maybe living somewhere hot it is just hard to keep them in full coat. There is no way to know for sure if she may be mixed with something else. But (even if her coat does not look extremely long in these photos) she IS a longhair , which means she had to inherit a longhair gene from both parents. And you live in UAE , and I think there are not as many (or any) local longhair cats as we would find in Northern countries. so that there is maybe less of a chance of her being a mix with some random - bred "domestic longhair" cats like we have a lot of here.
My screen / eyesigh, istn very good, so if you do see it is blue, I will buy your version.Nope, a blue bi-color.
I wrote black as I did saw black.

A black domestic shorthair! It's very hard to get photos of black cats which are anything more than a black cat-shaped blob which doesn't help, but he doesn't look like anything in particular to me.

I think he might actually be a bicolor! Look real close at that second photo. I think that's a tiny locket of white on his chest. Which means that he is black and white bicolor--he's got that white spotting gene too. Sometimes you can actually have an all-black cat with that gene, with maybe a couple of white hairs or none at all, and you can only tell if the cat has kittens that it's got the white-spotting gene.
Seems like he's just barely putting up with the kissing there! Silly cat. Probably wants to be let down to bunny-kick a catnip mouse! Or possibly sleep on top of it, if the other pics are any indication.

My adorkable kitty, Twitch.
She's 2 years old, 5.2 lbs, and as you can tell, loves my lap. c:
Any idea of her bread, possibly? I'm curious about the red/brown splotches on her back and sides.
Thankyee

Red/brown splotches on her back are telling you her colour is (brown) classic tortie tabby. Domestic Shorthair (unless she's registered pedigree cat, in which case you probably wouldn't be asking).
I was told by a Korat breeder that sometimes cats from long lines of self cats (Korat for example!) can have tiny lockets or patches of white along the midline without having the white spotting gene - it's simply a tiny developmental fault.

Wow, I didn't know that! That's cool.
Kloure--I love your cat's coloring! Classic tabby tortie isn't something you see every day. Absolutely gorgeous. If this kitty were outgoing and good with handling, she might do well in a household pet category in a cat show.

HA. I just realized I spelled "breed" as "bread"... Well that was a nice introduction for myself.
Anywho... Thanks, NorthernGlow for the info. And I'm sure my li'l lap hugger would feel very complimented (if she could read), Callista.

She looks like a tortilla. Or possibly a nice dark rye.

I don't see any tortie in that DSH classic brown tabby cat? What are you others seeing that I'm not?
She's a beautiful girl but looks a bit thin, perhaps you could increase her daily food intake?
