So with having the day off today with sheldons surgery I have had tried to take my mind off it by following up on something that has been mentioned to me loads of times

Is Quinn a Russian Blue?

When I originally got her the RSPCA said she was crossed with a BSH but Iv been looking into Russian Blues today and she has all the characteristics and looks of a RB

Does anyone think this could be a possibility

Iv added a picture of Quinn and a pic of a pure bread RB the same age what do you think??

She could well have some Russian Blue in her- it would explain those lovely big ears that she has. I doubt that a ped Russian kitten would have ended up in a rescue centre (not one bred by a good breeder, anyway!), but she does look like she could have those genes somewhere down the line :001_wub:

Some better pics of Q

Gosh she is a beautiful little girl!

I can definitely see BSH in her muzzle though - maybe she is a cross between both.

She deffo has bsh in her! She is gorgeous :001_wub::001_wub:

She definitely looks like she has some Russian in her, what colour paw pads does she have?

 

[Treaclesmum]

Yes she has those lovely big round whisker pads like a BSH :001_wub:

Could be crossed with a Russian, or could be just a British blue moggy cross??

She's blue her paw pads will be grey

Quinn is growing into a beautiful young lady :001_wub::001_wub:

She does look like she has some Russian and BSH

Russian blues shuld have green eyes - too looks like Quinn's will be gold.

Here is a good site, What blue cat is that? Paw pads should be dark lavender/mauve if she is pure Russian according to this! Although some of the pics are more of the extreme American style Russians than the British

I thought this- plus her eyes aren't quite the right colour for a Russian, they're more BSH coloured. Hmm, she's certainly a unique and very beautiful young lady :001_wub:

[ShelybellyandTeamC]

[labydird]

She is so beautiful!

I thought at the beginning that she looked liked like a Burmese BSH cross (not that I have even seen one in real life!) but I didn't want to be a wierdo saying "they're just like a mix of mine!"
