Question
Male cat 4 years ol
Male cat 4 years ol  
I recently adopted this male cat. Can he be an Australian Mist?

Answer
Tammy,

Check out http://www.catsofaustralia.com/australian-mist-cat.htm.

From your picture, as near as I can tell, your boy, although very handsome, does not seem to have the correct body type or pattern to be an Australian Mist.

I have seen Australian Mists in Australia, but never in the USA, so it is doubtful this breed is part of the USA feral population.

Do you have a side view, where I can see the tabby pattern?

Best regards... Norm.
