On the other hand, I don't even know if there's a word for "mutt" with cats the way there is for generic mixed dogs. When I last moved and got a new vet, and they asked me what breed my cats were and I said I wasn't sure as they didn't have any "distinctive" breed and were shelter adopts, they pretty much just said "Domestic shorthair it is then". Not sure if that's something particular that's just common or a catch-all term.

Well let's see, known cat breeds:
Orange, Tuxedo, Standard Issue, Void, Siamese (my parents had a flame point siamese that was weird), naked wrinkly cat, Fluffball.
Think that about covers it.
Edit: Oh yes, Torties and Calicos, and I forgot one I love: Tactical Issue! Some people think they're just sneaky cats. Nope! Grey and white stripes that blend in well with urban environments

"Mongrel" is the word, but I've barely heard it used.
Pretty confident "domestic shorthair" is the "John Doe" of cat breeds.

My friend has a munchkin void. It can go from purr to hiss in a fraction of a second.

Domestic short hair sounds like the aristocracy thought mutt was too common

Different dog breeds were bred to have specific uses though

Moggy can be used for cats the way mutt is for dogs, but I think it might be more common in the UK? I don’t really hear it in the US, maybe cat breeders use it.
But yeah, for vets and rescues it’s just domestic short hair/long hair (sometimes medium hair).

There’s also spicy cats, which include wild cats and big cats.

That sounds like my mum's cat. She was a feral, left on the doorstep of the pub.
She'll hiss and growl at everything, but you just distract her with a toy, then it's all purrs and snuggles.She has a weird obsession with licking faces, which evolved from biting faces.

Spicy cats are kind of scary tho
Especially when they're not very far away from you without a cage or glass between it and you

I have never had my eskie mistaken for a husky, it's always either a Pomeranian or a Samoyed.
That being said I do also have an orange braincell, a void, a tortie and a good girl.

As someone who prefers licks, this is good progress

I've only ever heard that used about people, as a slur.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Based on a dogs shape and coat, you can pretty easily determine the breed families in it. It's important to know since dog breeds are much more diverse due to their history with humans around the world—most have jobs bred into them. So it's still good to know if your dog has breeding in it that thrives on exercise or fetch jobs or that sort of thing. Most of those little dogs are for hunting small vermin and are savage fuckers, for example.
Cats it's mostly one size fits all with a random roll on personality stats.

How far we’ve come (fallen?) from the days of alt.tasteless trolling rec.pets.cats.
I’ve met far too many people who either subscribed or would have subscribed to Cat Fancy.
