Domestic Shorthair Appraisal

Domestic Shorthair Cat with Partial Shave

This is a domestic shorthair cat with a distinctive grey tabby coat pattern, characterized by darker stripes or swirls against a lighter grey background. The fur appears to be medium in length, though it has been partially shaved, particularly noticeable on the hindquarters and possibly along the flanks, giving it a somewhat uneven texture in those areas. The head and forequarters retain fuller fur, suggesting a 'lion cut' or similar grooming style. The cat's eyes are a striking blue-green or amber color, and its face displays prominent white whiskers. Its ears are upright and pointed, consistent with a typical domestic feline. The tail is medium-long and fluffy at the end, displaying the same tabby pattern as the body. There are no visible signs of injury or distress; the cat appears alert and in good health, perched on a light-colored wooden table. The partial shave is a unique feature that indicates human interaction and grooming. The overall quality of the coat, where present, suggests good care, with a soft and clean appearance. The cat exhibits typical feline posture, with front paws tucked and hindquarters relaxed, ready for movement. No specific breed markings or unique characteristics beyond the fur color and pattern are discernible, indicating it is likely a mixed-breed domestic cat.
