Hi I have a 6 month old kitten. When we got her she had lots of signs of being long haired, but since then she’s gotten shorter and shorter fur. She is still somewhat showing signs she will be long haired but I’d love your opinions!!
Her tail has fluffed up a bit recently and her toes have lots of long fur. She was advertised as a ragdoll but I doubt she is, we’re thinking some Balinese perhaps? Is it normal for 6 month old long haired kittens to be relatively short haired still??

In the summer even longhairs tend to be shorter in hairs... If tail bushy, she is bushy... So she is longhair for sure. Even if some may call it for semilonghair.
So I think she is a legit look alike to a blue ragdoll.... Perhaps pet quality, but legit.

No, not balinese. Balinese are longhaired siameses, and she is definitely no siamese... Wrong shape of body and head...
