On Friday we adopted our newest member of the family, 6 month old Gwen, from her old humans who couldn’t cope with her anymore.
When I registered her with the vets they asked what colour she way and I said “grey I think” as we hadn’t really had much info about her or many photos.
Now we’ve got her I know she’s definitely not grey, but I’m not really sure if I can describe a cat as ‘beige’ 😂
So what colour would you describe Gwen as?

Wow! Gwen is absolutely stunning 😍
I think she's a brown lynx point, just with bolder patterning.
Thank you so much! Never heard of this before because I’m not super into knowing cat breeds but this is fab, thank you!

Of course, no problem. Her eyes are gorgeous! :)
If in the the UK/Europe Tabby point is more commonly used I believe. So you can tell your vet either and I'm sure they'll know :lol:

Right. She is very apparent a point ("siamese mix")
A lynx (= tabby in points); probably of the classic tabby type
Her face looks greyisn (blue in cat fancy language), but her tail is very black in its darkest places; so she is black / brown; seal in points.

Thus; domestic shorthair, seal lynx point. As others said.

A stunning beauty. :)
