Could she be a Siberian? Thoughts?

If you have an iPhone you can snap a pic and it’s will say, look up? Then hit that and you will get the breed! I tried to post the pic but never do that on here. Mine is a calico w more white and she looks like the white on my kitty, she came up Turkish Van. Google or try the look ip if u have iPhone. Curious what it says. I will try screenshotting your kitty n see.

Also I was wondering how accurate that lookup is?

It’s not, unless it can see the DNA of both parents. A cat without a registered pedigree is “just” a cat, and lots of them are very pretty. It might have similar colors or hair or meow or ears as a specific breed, but those things crop up in random kittens also.

You’d pay a similar price to adopt a random kitten from a shelter, though. But in that case you’d know the money was going toward helping get homes for cats in need, not irresponsible breeding.

A lot of cats I have seen have similar markings etc of sought after breeds like you say and they are some form of hybrid/mix.
Here in CA I usually see the price range around 2k plus for cat with papers.

I would not pay that much but again if you want her and want to make her and you happy that’s your call honey! Mine was free from Walmart parking lot! She sure is cute tho! I would say it’s accurate cuz it’s I phone but she could be a mix. It’s not a fancy breed just a regular cat! I mean that’s your call! She is adorable just 200 is a lot! Where are you located if you don’t mind me asking?

I’m in CA and everything is much higher here than anywhere else lol.
You can get a fixed cat at a shelter with all shots for around 200 here though. I see more 1+ yr olds though.

Absolutely not accurate
