From you photo she is a domestic shorthair (no breed). But the color is unusual. You call it gray but from the photo its pretty dark. Her color would be a "bicolor" (color and white) - she looks like a black bicolor, but the gray mix looking may mean she is a black SMOKE and white bicolor.

Part the hairs on her back and sides - if the color of the coat is white at the base (not just a greyish color) she would be a smoke color. If its just off color black/greyish it could mean she's been sick and the coat has taken on a greyish look, or she's shedding out and that's why she has a gray look.

A true "grey" cat would be consider a blue cat.

I have had my 1 year old cat for about 4 months now. I believe i am her third owner, so i have no idea where she came from. I'd like to know what breed she is as she looks different to other cats i've had in the past.

She is mostly dark grey with a mask of white on her face and a little white also marbled through her coat. She has yellow eyes and fairly short frame. I call her husky cat because she looks a bit like a husky dog.

Her vet thinks she might be part pursian? Do you know what she is?
