How to identify a cat's breed if you don't know it: a life hack

There are cases when owners do not know the breed of their pet. This may be because the cat was a gift or picked up on the street.

If you still want to know the breed of the animal, pay attention to its appearance. OBOZREVATEL has found a way to help you understand this issue.

The shape of the ears, eye colour, and coat colour can tell you a lot about your pet. Knowing all these signs, you can find a picture on the Internet that will help you identify the breed and learn more about the cat.

But not everything is so simple if the cat is a mixed breed. It will be more difficult to find the desired characteristic, but yes, you can at least find out the likely parents of the pet. Then, based on the new information, you will look for other data.

Be sure to compare the shape of the muzzle, ears, and eye colour with pictures of cats of different breeds. This will help you find a similar cat faster.

But the exact answer to this question can only be given by a felinologist, a cat specialist. With the help of an examination, he will be able to determine what breed of cat the animal is similar to.
