The domestic longhair, also known as a mixed housecat, or domestic cat, is a mixed long fur breed. These cats are not purebred since either one parent is unknown or non pedigreed. Their diversity gives them a distinctive appearance for which they are judged according to color: Solid, Solid and White, Tabby, Tabby and White, Tortoiseshell, Tortoiseshell and White, Shaded, Shaded and White, Pointed and Pointed and White. Their genetic diversity also makes them healthier.
