Question
hello. a day ago i asked you if you knew the breed of my cat and you replied that she may be an oriental shorthair. the thing is she doesn't look loike that. she looks like a russian white. i looked on a website and thay said they have green eyes, but is it possible that some have blue. thank you

Answer
Grace,

The Orientals have a very long sleek body, a wedge shaped heads and huge ears which follow the wedge.  They have long fine boned legs and a whip like tail.

The Russians have a foreign shorthair body, which is not quite as long and lithe as the Oriental, but fairly sleek in their own right.  The bone is slightly heavier, the body is slightly thicker.  The head is a more rounded wedge with the ears not being quite so large nor as flared as the Oriental.

And, yes, the white Russian would have green eyes.  White Orientals can have green eyes, blue eyes, or one of each.

I hope this helps a bit.  Without a picture, it is really hard to know what your kitty might be.

Best regards... Norm.
