Oriental Shorthair

 
The Oriental Shorthair is a breed of domestic cat, combining the Siamese body type with a diversity of coat colors and patterns. The breed is recognized as such (since 1977) by the United States-based but internationally open Cat Fanciers' Association and (since 1997) the United Kingdom-based Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF), and various other cat breeding organizations. While the breed's genetic roots are ultimately in Thailand, the breed was formally developed principally in the US. The breed is among the most popular among CFA members
he Oriental Shorthair is a member of the Siamese family of breeds, and can be found in various solid colors, and patterns such as smoke, shaded, parti-color/tortoiseshell,[1][2] tabby[2] and bicolor (any of the above, with white).[3] Not all variants are acceptable to all organizations that recognize the breed. Conforming Oriental Shorthairs, like any of the Siamese type, have almond-shaped eyes and a wedge-shaped head with large ears that fit in the wedge of the head.[clarification needed] Their bodies are typically "sleek" but muscular.[1]
The long-haired version of the breed, the Oriental Longhair (recognized since 1995 by CFA[1]), simply carries a pair of the recessive long hair genes
