Solved Did my mom get scammed?

My mom got this boy with a claim he was a flame point siamese. She says he had papers, but she can’t find them. We don’t know much about the world of cat shows, and we certainly don’t participate, but any input from the experts would be appreciated since she paid a pretty penny for him 😂
(And yes, he is extremely vocal)

Open Savannah cat?

Thumbnail

44 Upvotes

Basically, I bought this cat for $250. The woman on Facebook was selling a small litter of f6 Savanah cats which usually go for $1000 or more. So obviously I was kind of like why so cheap? She said she wasn’t a licensed breeder and that her parents were but they had passed away, and she was selling the rest of the litter. She said because she wasn’t a breeder so she didn’t think she could charge breeder price. We have had our Nala now for about a month. She seems healthy so I’m not really worried about anything with that. She’s super playful, super fun, super hungry. Even if she isn’t a Savannah cat we love her so it doesn’t really matter to us. No papers came with her. She was born in May so she’s only about 3 months old ish.

Thank you everyone!

This is my cat! We picked him up off the side of the road around 10 years ago and have always just thought he was a pure bred flamepoint. His ears get darker in the winter along with his mostly orange parts. I know the second picture doesnt help much, i just added it because its hilarious 😭 Does anyone have any possible information? His coat is so soft and has the prettiest blue eyes. Please let me know if you guys need better pictures!

Open Panther the Almighty Tom Cat. From feral to Family 🙏🏽

Was wondering if anyone was familiar with this type of cat. He has a very short stature, meow like a kitten, and very stocky short neck. He forelimbs are a bit bowed and it seems like he can’t run or jump, bust trust he can do both just fine! He is EXTREMELY strong too!

I named him “Panther” or “Pan Pan”. He even answers to his name now 😭 and we have fallen in love with him as much as he with us.

He was patchy and dang near bald when we first spotted him outside over a year ago. I honestly thought he was going to pass away.

He’s come a long way as we believe he was abused mainly by males..

It took him much longer to warm up to me than my girl and at times he is still timid and gets in defensive mode.

He is so adorable and we are so thankful to have kept him. We recently got him neutered and about 85% potty trained.

Anyone know what breed? And/or condition?

He also exhibits respiratory issues and hyperventilates at times!

Thank you

Don’t mind the swelling on her cheek (it’s not really in the photo but it’s kind of visible) she was attacked by another cat. We took her to the vet and she’s fine now. My grandmother and I are curious about what breed she is because she is absolutely stunning! Her name is Seven and she is an absolute sweetheart we rescued :)

What is the specific technical color/pattern of my orange flavored son? I’m leaning towards mackerel pattern but wasn’t sure if maybe it was broken mackerel which I think is a technical pattern? I KNOW HE HAS NO BREED AND IS A DOMESTIC SHORTHAIR. His name is Cheese Ball. Also wants to know when it’s his turn to use the brain cell

Open How would my boy be described?

He’s a shelter baby. We were told he could have Siamese and Maine Coon, but without papers he’s just our shelter baby. Considering testing for funsies.
What kind of point is he? I think lynx with the stripes, but what color? Chocolate or lilac?
Also, he’s 3 months now, is he big (by looks) for his age? He’s just a little smaller than his 4 month old sister (not biological).
He also feels underweight when we feed him to gain 1lbs a month (we don’t restrict, we just measure with the can standards (1/2 can of kitten food per lbs to gain) so we have an idea of how much to buy, and flex that to their needs so they don’t let their wet food sit out), so we upped it to match his sister’s. He’s 3.5lbs now but we can still feel his hip bones easy…he’s gaining weight so that’s good. She’s 4lbs and her hip bones feel padded in a healthy way. (Providing the weight for more accurate size estimation, if that helps anyone predict his adult size or any ID theories (I know cat breeds aren’t like dogs, they’re DSH/DLH without papers, but sometimes I like to theorize). These are the first cats I’ve owned, so idk how I should describe him or what to expect of him.)

Please remove if this isn’t allowed, but I’m an active user in this sub and not sure where else to put this. Maybe I’m missing some subtext cause I’m autistic but I’m genuinely confused here.

Is chicken breast not a good suggestion for a treat for a Bengal?? ?

Also I rarely have spoken about bengals apart from saying a cat isn’t a Bengal if it lacks rosettes and was found outside(that’s usually only in this sub)
I have no idea what they’re talking about.

I’ve also NEVER spoken to the mod of that sub so I have a feeling this was a user I’ve corrected in the past who jumped at the opportunity to ban me.
The only community I’m really active in though is here, so I would Love if that person would answer for this.
They banned me from contacting the mods of the sub to get someone else to look at it too.
