Hello, everyone
This is my niece cat, she doesn't know what breed she is, the cat is kinda hostile, hates to be held or touched. her fur is not silky and kinda stiff, if that helps. I thought she was Persian in the start but she is very different from my actual Persian cat. what do you think?

She certainly could have Persian ancestry, since she has a short nose, deep dip in her profile, large eyes and broad face. My guess would be that she has some "doll-faced" Persians in her family. ("Doll-faced" Persians don't have an extreme flat face like a show Persian.) However, without definite information about her background, she would be considered a cream point domestic longhair... possibly a red point, but she looks more like a cream point to me in these pictures.

thank you so much!

Agree!
dose the fact that she has a square back when she sits makes any difference?

I think her head type is probably the best clue to her ancestry.

She’s beautiful! I think she looks like she could have Persian ancestry, her facial structure is pretty close to a doll face Persian.

Thank you again! I really know nothing about cats breeds.

You're so kind! I just searched that and hardly endured all that cuteness !!
It's a shame that she did not ask about it when she adopted her but it's not that important just my curiosity :)
