    cat breeds
    vanezz asked:


    I’d like to have a pet cat and i find that Friskies “model cat” in “Dry Varieties” as a candidate, can somebody tell me what breed of cat it is? the striped one that comes in gray or orange? I’ve been looking at some websites featuring cat breeds and i don’t seem to find it..thanks peepz
    Tabbys? u mean its a local/native cat in the US? Hardly do I see pet shops selling cats here in Asia which is why i’m so clueless… :P

      They’re just tabby’s, on websites, they maybe called domestic short hairs, they come in all varieties, including tabby’s.

      Go to your local shelter and you’ll find many there I am sure.

      If it’s a purebred, it’s a tabby American Shorthair. Chances are good, however, that it’s not purebred and is a Domestic Shorthair, i.e. mutt. :) Please go check local humane societies and rescues, and you can likely find the perfect cat for you.

      Also, will likely have a list of shelters near you, and give information on some of the animals available for adoption.

      They are called domestic short hair breed. The color is orange tabby. Most orange tabbys are males because of genetics. Domestic short hair is a very common breed and you can find them in any local animal shelter or SPCA. I know if you adopt a pet from SPCA you can have your cat spayed/neutered for a very inexpensive price. My cat “Miss Kitty” (a domestic short hair tabby) was thrown into a dumpster and found by my son’s daycare. She is a very sweet cat. Good luck!

      It looks like a regular ol’ domestic shorthair (the way vets classify ‘mixed breed cats’) orange tabby, with broken mackeral stripes. The closest purebred it resembles is the Egyptian Mau.

      In America it is called Domestic Short Hair. It is also known as American Short Hair. I have a silver/black striped cat similar to the orange cat on the label. Besides striped they also come in a number of colors and patterns. Hope this helps since you are not in America.
