What breed of kitten is this?

If you really want to know her genetics, Wisdom Panel now has cat DNA tests, but they are $150+...Unless it's an obvious breed, DSH (Domestic Short Hair) is about as "breed specific" as you're going to find.

There is a fun little app called "Cat Scanner" (there's also a "dog scanner") that uses photos to determine possible breeds. It's not super accurate on kittens though, it said my cat, Clark, was 75% tiger until he was fully grown! He's over 2 now and it says he's part Maine Coon, which is likely much closer to true than tiger. Lol

Ooo I will look into the app. Not paying for her breed DNA. Thanks

Same response I had! I did DNA testing on both of my dogs (our Chi-Pom was given to us as a "lab mix"), but there's no way I was dropping $300 on cat tests! The app is free (on Apple).

She is insane. She kicks all of her litter out of the litter box then poops and then put it all back in the litter box.

How big is your litter box? We got plastic storage boxes as litter boxes they have a higher side

Really it’s a female? Very uncommon for an orange cat. Look it up it’s pretty interesting

It is a short and pretty big. We can’t use the tall ones till she gets her stitches out.

Yep! She is a girl… the vet would know, they fixed her

We have always done the big, domed litter boxes with decent success until we got our current cats (they both turned 2 this Summer). They made such a mess! I ended up switching to top entry boxes, they look like totes and have a grate over the top and a hole for them to go into. Our boy gets in there and throws litter everywhere, but it's completely contained! They were $20+ on Amazon, we just got the "Amazon Essentials" brand one, no need to buy "brand name" for a poo box, lol.

Cute little domestic shorthair! Orange is rare for a girl but we also have a female orange tabby. I wouldn’t worry about putting a cone on her unless she’s trying to rip them out or constantly licking them. Most cats won’t bother their stitches. We’ve had over a dozen cats fixed and none of them have ripped their stitches out. It’s mostly just a problem with dogs.
