The Cat Breed Masterlist is created with the express purpose of sharing details on every cat breed recorded.
✦
This site includes extinct, new, experimental, unofficial or lesser known breeds not recognised by official cat associations such as The International Cat Association (TICA), Cat Fanciers Association (CFA) and Fédération Internationale Féline (FIFe).
✦
Due to the popularity of some breeds over others, many lesser known breeds will have less information than others.
✦
The site will be updated and each breed categorised based on common traits every time a new breed is recorded or found by the creator.

MOGGIES
NON-PEDIGREE
DOMESTIC LONG-HAIR | DOMESTIC SHORT-HAIR

Association status: whilst moggies are not considered cat breeds, some associations accept them in cat shows to be judged.
All DSH/DSL have to be altered/spayed/neutered in order to be judged in a cat show.✦Moggy cats (also known as Domestic Shorthair [DSH] and Domestic Longhair [DLH]) are cats with unkown parentage or mixed breeds and are not considered purebred cats.Patterns, Colours and Fur: Moggies can come in almost any patterns, colours or fur types and are very common as house pets.If you think you have a pedigreed/purebred cat but you do not in fact have paperwork on the family history, your cat will in large be considered a moggy cat, regardless of traits it may possess

CAT COAT COLOURS

Cats can come in so many colours and patterns, and whilst some breeds are colour and pattern specific, almost any breed can have any colour and pattern.
Both moggies and purebred cats can come in such a variety of colours and patterns as well as fur lengths and body types.✦There are four main colours and two series.
Black based (aka Eumalenin) consists of Black, Chocolate and Cinnamon colours.
Red based (aka Phaomelanin) and consists of Red/Orange colours. All red/orange cats are tabby, there is no true solid red cat.

After these four colours, we then move onto dilute cat colours. Dilute cats are usually lighter than their original counterparts, they are recessive traits to the dominant colours.
Black fur becomes blue/grey, Chocolate becomes Lilac/Lavender, Cinnamon becomes Fawn or a lighter lilac and Red becomes cream.

Tabby cats are the most well known and iconic pattern for any cat, but they aren't actually breeds at all. Almost any cat can have tabby patterns, and every tabby can come in any colour.
When it comes to genetics, tabby cats are a dominant gene, its the reason you see more tabby cats, especially in the wild.
✦
There are four main tabby patterns
Classic tabby, Mackerel Tabby, Spotted tabby and Ticked tabby.

When talking about tabby colour, the colour of the stripes are what you are referring to.
The three pictures below are all black tabby cats.
They all look different however, the cat on the left being a black/silver classic tabby, the cat in the middle is a black/grey tabby,whilst the cat on the right being a black/brown classic tabby.
Genetically however, these three are both black classic tabbies.
The difference between a black/silver and black/grey tabby is prescence of the silver gene, which is only present in the black/silver tabby.
Whether a cat is silver can be identified by checking the base of the hairs.

There are other tabby types and even breed specific tabby types, such as Rosetted, Marbled, Agouti, Broken mackerel tabby and more!

Tortoiseshell cats are another popular and well known pattern for cats. Like tabbies, calico and tortoiseshell cats aren't actually breed, instead they're a rather popular pattern that can be found in many moggies and breeds.
However, unlike tabbies, Calico and Tortie cats are almost 100% female, with only 0.03% being male.
All tortoiseshell's cats consist of two colours, one black based (Eumalenin) and one red based (Phaomelanin).
Non-dilute colours such as Black, Chocolate or Cinnamon can only pair with red,

whilst dilute colours Grey, Lilac and fawn are paired with cream.

All red spotting of a tortoiseshell/calico cat has faint tabby stripes, as all red and cream cats are inherintly tabby. However, not all tortie/calico cats are actually tabbies.
It is when the black part (Eumalenin) of the fur has tabby patterns itself is when the tortoiseshell or calico are considered Tortie-Tabbies and Calico-Tabbies
Torbies or Calibies for short.
Patched is another term for torbies/Calibies
Just like any other Tabbies, Tortoiseshell, Calicos and Patched cats can come in any colour and tabby pattern!

When it comes to Calico cats, the difference between them and tortoiseshell cats are how much white spotting they have.
All tortoiseshell cats have a brindled pattern, but the more white spotting they have, the more distinct and bigger the black and red patches become.
However different cat sites and registaries may vary and it depends on the country and how they identify the difference between a calico or tortoiseshell.

ID for picture above: Title of the picture says "HOW WHITE SPOTTING AFFECTS TORTOISESHELL COLOUR DISTRIBUTION" underneath the title is four illustrated pictures of cats facing to the left, the lineart for each cat is the same, a shorthaired cat with a side profile of their body to show their patterns.
The far left cat is complettly black with red brindled splotches along its body, the second cat is almost exactly the same, but there is low level white spotting on the chin, neck, chest belly and paws.
The third cat is white with black and red patches that are more defined, the patches are on the head, all along the back and tail and a few patches on each leg.
The last cat is white with only a few red and black patches, only one on the head, three patches on the body and two black patches, one on the front and one on the back leg.
Under them is a blue arrow that starts from the left cat and goes all the way to the right.
under the arrow is text saying "AS THE AMOUNT OF WHITE SPOTTING INCREASES, THE TORTOISESHELL COLOUR BECOMES LESS BRINGLED AND FORMS DISTINCT PATCHES OF COLOUR.
THIS IS RELATED TO THE MIGRATION RATES OF PIGMENT CELLS ACROSS THE SURFACE OF THE EMBRYO"
/end ID

White spotting on cats is interesting, they can happen in almost any pattern, colour and breed. Consider the white spotting like paint, you have the main pattern, whether it be solid, tabby, tortoiseshell or point, and then you splash the cat with white over it.
Tuxedo, Bicolours, Harlequinn and Van cats are all different levels of white spotting.
White spotting usually starts from the paws and chest, covering up the belly and legs. Higher white spotting cats have the white spotting mask up the face and even back, reaching up to the tail and leaving only head/ear spots and tail tips.

Dominant white cats or Epistatic white cats are different from cats with high white spotting and run on a different gene to black or red based colours.
Blue eyed white cats are well associated with deafness in cats, however it's only dominant white cats that are actually affected and have a high chance of being deaf.
White cats can also have amber, green or heterochromia eyes.
Some white kittens might be born with smudges of colour on their forehead's but they usually disappear by adulthood.
Genetically, White dominant cats may be any colour or pattern, but the white gene covers any other colours.

Unlike Dominant white and white spotting, Albinism in cats is recessive. Dominant and white spotting cats still genetically have other patterns hidden or covered in white.
However, Albinism is a mutation that causes the cat to have a lack of any colour at all, this also includes pigment in the eyes.
Contrary to popular media and stereotypes, Albino cats eyes are more pink or blueish-pink eyes, which results in weaker eyes that are sensitive to light.

UNIQUE COLOURS AND PATTERNS

With a continuation on cat colours and patterns, this page is dedicated to more unique and breed specific patterns and colours.✦Colourpoint cats are most well known for Siamese and Ragdoll cats, but can be present in many other breeds.
Colourpoint cats can have almost any pattern and colour, and have almost any level of white spotting.
Black point cats do exist, however they are labelled as Seal Point.
Red points are called Flame Point.
The point gene is recessive, meaning you need two parents that are point or point carriers in order to produce point kittens.
·
Blue eyes are a rare and unique eye colour for cats, and point cats are well known for having primarily ONLY blue eyes!

The point pattern is unique because it is technically heat sensitive albinism. The coolest parts of the cat showing the most colour.
Usually point cats who live in colder areas will have darker fur.
Point kittens all start off white and as they grow up their point pattern shows

Mink, Sepia and Solid point cats are a darker gene of point cats that are most commonly seen in Burmese, Tonkinese, Ragdoll and Tibetan.
Unlike other point cats, Burmese cats do not have blue eyes, more commonly having yellow or orange eyes.

Ghost Tabbies are cats that are still genetically solid. All cats are technically tabbies, even the most solid looking cats. It is why sometimes in the sun you can see faint stripes and tabby markings on cats.
However, most of the time these markings fade as the cat grows older. However some adult cats can have more prominant ghost tabby markings.

Smoke Cats are different to silver cats in the cat that they are genetically solid. You can tell a cat is smoke by parting the fur and being able to see the base of the fur being silver that slowly transitions to the colour of the cat.
Any tabby like markings don't mean the cat is actually a tabby however. They are called ghost markings.

The Karpati pattern is rather new andd unique to cat genetics. Originally stated as a new breed, it seems to be the pattern of the transylvanian breed.

CAT GENETICS

Using the information from Cat Coat Colours, cat genetics can be quite simple if you know the basics. This page will not go into too much depth or detail, and will stick mainly to basic cat colours and patterns.This page is purely hypothetical, please do not leave your cat unfixed, please have your cats spayed. Cats that are not spayed can have well over 100 kittens and can be a huge danger to wildlife. Shelters are easily overrun with kittens and TNR costs a lot.✦Lets start off with colours.
From dominant to recessive in black based (Eumalanin) cats it's:
Black - Chocolate - CinnamonDespite being different colours, chocolate and cinnamon are still black-based colours.
this means that Black is the dominant colour, Chocolate is recessive to black and Cinnamon is recessive to both black and Chocolate.
This just means for Chocolate and Cinnamon, both parents must be Chocolate/ Cinnamon or carriers of those colours in order for their kittens to be them.Dilute colours are more recessive than non-dilute:
Grey - Lilac - FawnThis means, if a black and grey cat have kittens, the majority of the kittens will be black. However, because the recessive gene is still there, the kittens have a chance of carrying the grey colours, and would have a more likely chance of having grey kittens themselves if their mates were grey.

Red/Cream colours (Phaomalenin) are co-dominant with Black based cats, which is the reason why we get calico/tortoiseshell cats.
When it comes to Phaomalenin in genetics male cats get only one colour from their mothers whilst female cats gets parents from both parents. That is how tortoiseshell's are made.
The majority of the time, ginger cats are male.If the mother is a black tortoiseshell and the dad is solid black, then the female kittens will be either all black or tortoiseshell, and the the male kittens will be either black or red.
It's only if the parents are both black based (Eumalanin) that the kittens can have either of their parents colour.
Alternatively, if the father is a red tabby, then the female kittens will either be tortoiseshell or red.

The tabby pattern in genetics is also dominant, kittens with one tabby and one solid parent are more likely to inherit the tabby pattern.
Different tabby patterns are more dominant than others, but that doesn't equal popularity, as classic and mackerel tabbies are more popular than spotted or ticked.
from dominant to recessive:
Ticked - Spotted - Mackerel - Classic

White spotting is a dominant pattern, meaning that it doesnt matter what level of white spotting the parents have, the kittens can also have the same or roundabout.
However cats with only one or two spots on the belly/chest will not produce kittens with higher white spotting.
If one parent has no white spotting, and the other has more than half, the kittens will likely have less than half white spotting.
As mentioned before in the section about dominant white cats, pure white cats still carry other colour/pattern genes from their parents, for example they may be white, but both parents were tabby cats.
If a dominant white cat with the chocolate gene has kittens with a solid lilac cat, then the kittens will most likely be chocolate with white spotting. The kittens have a chance of being lilac or carrying the colour.
This works with any other pattern/colour combination

Fur length is also determined by genetics, short fur being dominant and long fur being recessive.

FUN FACT: when it comes to more unique fur types like hairless and curly fur, the hairless gene is recessive to normal fur types [both long and short] and curly fur is actually recessive to both normal and the hairless gene.From dominant to recessive in coat lengths
Short fur - long fur - no fur/hairless - curly furOther unique patterns and colours like Point, Smoke, Roan and lykoi fur are all recessive traits and follow the same rules as other recessive genes.

GENETICS EXAMPLE:
using the information from above, we can make theories one what kittens can look like from their parents. A hypothetical scenario for any OCs or characters one wanted to make for their projects, stories or art.
✦
Sire: A black ticked tabby with medium white spotting and long fur.
Carries
-chocolate
-solid
Does NOT carry diluteDam: A solid lilac calico with tuxedo white spotting and short fur.
Carries
- long fur

All kittens can be shorthaired or longhaired.
They can be solid or any type of tabby, and can have any amount of white spotting.
Kittens will most likely not be dilute, however they will carry the dilute gene.Male kittens can be black, chocolate or red.Female kittens can be black, tortoiseshell, chocolate or chocolate tortoiseshell

(ID for image above: A digital art picture of a family tree of cats, the first parent on the left is the Sire from above, A black longhaired tabby cat with white spotting, it's mate, the Dam is a shorthaired lilac calico with a white muzzle and chin.
Below them are two sections, on the left are six males and on the right are eight females, the gender symbols above each group. Each cat has different pattern combinations from the above genetics possibilities.
Male cats:
A black shorthaired tabby with white spotting on 1/4th of the face. lime green eyes.
A shorthaired ginger tabby with white covering bottom half of the face. Light green eyes.
A shorthaired chocolate solid cat with a white muzzle and chin. orange eyes.
A longhaired black and white cat with white covering most of the face except forehead, ears, nose and jowls. olive coloured eyes.
A longhaired ginger tabby with a white chin. Green eyes.
And a chocolate shorhaired tabby with white on the bottom half of the face. Light green eyes.
Female cats:
A shorthaired black tabby calico with white on the lower half of the face, and a small black nose spot. One green One olive eye.
A black and white shorthaired cat with white on lower half of face and a jowl spot. Grey/green eyes.
A chocolate shorthaired tabby cat with white muzzle and chin. Orange eyes.
A shorthaired chocolate calico cat with white mask and chin. Orange eyes.
A chocolate longhaired bicolour with half the face covered in white, a chocolate spot on the left jowl and right below the eye. Ginger eyes.
A chocolate longhaired calico-tabby with white spotting on the chin. Light green eyes.
A longhaired black calico cat with white spotting on the chin and the right jowl. Grey eyes.
A black longhaired tabby, with white over the muzzle and chin as well as above the eyes. Yellow eyes.
Under the family tree it says in Blue "All kittens carry dilute" and in red it says "Patterns are all hypothetical"
/ End ID)

Of course, this is just an example, and it doesn't cover every tabby or white spotting possibility.With it being just the basics of cat genetics, there is still more to do with smoke, point and other more Unique Patterns that are involved with cat genetics.If you would like to see more advanced genetics I recommend checking out Sparrows Garden.

CHIMERA CATS AND MUTATIONS

Chimera cats are an interesting phenomenon. Like any other chimera animal, a chimera cat is when two fertilised eggs fuse together in the womb.
These iconic photos of cats below, with half their face as one colour, and the other side of the face another is a popular reference for Chimeraism in cats.
None of these cats are actually Chimera cats however, perfectly split faced torties are rare but that does not mean they are chimera cats.✦
It can be hard to properly identify a chimera cat without proper DNA testing, however some chimera cats are easily identifyable due to their unique colours and patterns.

(ID for image above: A white picture with multiple cats with different colours and patterns. Title at the top says "CHIMERA PATTERNS". Underneath the title is another text saying "A chimera is a result of two embryos merging early on. The cat is a mix of 2 different cell lines and can have unusual colour or pattern combinations."
On the left of the picture is a diagram surrounded by a blue border, it shows 2 colour dots, the left four are orange with "Embro 1" text on top, the left is grey with "Embryo 2" text.
Two red arrows point down together with text saying "Bump into each other and fuse together."
below that is a mix of grey and red dots with "Merged embryo" text on top.
one single red arrow pointing down says "continue to develop as a single individual" in text.
the arrow is pointing to a cat illustration, the cat is grey with strange orange patterns, text over the picture says "Chimera cat (2 cell lines in one body")
on the right of the box is a picture of 6 illustrated cats, each with text underneath.
first cat is beige tabby and black irregular spots, text says"Mix of solid + tabby cell-lines."
2nd cat is grey with black irregular spots, text says "Mix of dense + dilute colours"
3rd cat is cream with chocolate front body and point pattern text says. "Mix of pointed+ non-pointed"
4th cat is pure white with lines in different parts of the body symbolising longer fur patches, taxt says "Mix of longhair and shorthair patches (the patches may also be different colours)"
next line has the last two cats.
5th cat is beige tabby with black and orange irregular spots, text says "Mix of solid + tabby cell-lines where one embryo was tortoiseshell"
6th cat is grey with orange splotches, text says "mix of dense + dilute colours."
under that is another text that says "white spotting can occur on any of these patterns"
in the right bottom corner of the picture is an illustration of a cat head with a red cross over it. the cat head is half red and half black. text underneath says "A half-and-half face in normal tortie colours is not a sign of a chimera. It's a normal tortie variation!"
/ End ID)

The Klinefelter Syndrome, also known as the XXY condition, or most commonly known as male calicos and tortoiseshell cats; are an interesting phenomenon.
When it comes to calico/tortoiseshell cats, the majority of them are female, actually, only 0.03% of calico/tortie cats are male. To put that in perspective, if you have around 3 thousand calico/tortie cats, only 1 of them would be male.
Male calico's are often infertile, but it is not impossible for them to have kittens.
The most common cause of calico/tortie tom cats is chimeraism, but not all calico tom cats are actually chimera cats.
✦
When it comes to cat genetics, female cats have XX chromosomes and males only have XY chromosomes.
The X chromosome carries the coat colour, which is why females can have two colours, but males typically have one.
For a male to become a calico, they would have to have two X chromosomes, which is a genetic abnormality. This would result in XXY chromosomes.

ID: a six picture collage of the same cat in different angles, the cat is a tortie-tabby tom cat with short fur with high white spotting. one picture shows a close up of his testicles.
Text on the bottom right says "Tabby-tortie male "Odyssy". Photos by Emma Wiechmann North Queensland, Australia. He is obviously tabby-tortie-and-white and obviously male."

SOMATIC MUTATION

Vitiligo, like humans, can show up in cats as well. Most of the time, kittens are born without the white spotting but as they grow up the pattern grows and becomes more prominant.

BREED DIFFERENCES

Breed Differences can be hard to differentiate sometimes, and it can get confusing as to which traits belong to what breeds.
The pages are dedicated to those differences to help people to understand.

AMERICAN VS EUROPIAN ORIENTAL CATS

Oriental breeds such as Oriental Shorthair or Oriental Longhair are both well defined by their huge ears and long snouts.
Many cat Associations have similar breed standards, however, there is a slight difference to breed standards in America and Europe.
✦
American Oriental cats seem to have their ears more upright and less of a dome shape forehead between their ears.
European Orientals have their ears more flared off to the sides of the head.

SPHYNX VS DONSKOY VS PETERBALD

The Sphynx cat is the most iconic and well know of all hairless cats, but there are two other hairless breeds with similar traits and attributes; Donskoy and Peterbald.✦

ABOUT

I have been working on the Cat Breed Masterlist for years.
It started on a google document I would share around to everyone. However, it became unreadable as the breeds reached over 100.
In 2020 I moved to make a site on carrd.
However since then I have gotten better at using carrd, and I am now able to include unlimited assets and expand not just on cat breeds but also go into more details on cat genetics and colours.
Domestic cats have been a hyperfixation for many years, and my love for cat breeds made me want to make an accesable source for everyone to enjoy.
Many people have asked for this, many people still come up to me for advice, so making this site was something I really wanted to do.✦FUTURE UPDATE PLANS:
- Information pages about unique differences to more popular breeds.
_{( American vs European Oriental cats - Maine Coon vs NFC vs SFC - Sphynx vs Donskoy vs Peterbald)}
- Every cat breed will link to a page dedicated to it, with breed characteristics and other information
- different types of mutations
-possibly more faux, extinct and lost breeds
