She looks like the not-very-distant cousin of my kitty

So cute!! Are these both Russian blues? 🥰

The dna test said “domestic shorthair”.

Oh wow, I didn't know there were tests for that. So cool!

The gray fur may commes from a Russian Blue, while still being considered a "domestic shorthair". That race is just a way for a vet to say "I have no idea", due to not corresponding to all the race traits, without looking like a fool. 😂

Mine was one too, here is a picture near his litter sister.

Both are domestic shorthair, but from different fathers.
