Sounds like a Bombay mix. I strongly doubt she's a purebred of any breed, but she sounds like she looks like Clover and Clover is a Bombay mix. But Bombays are pure black.

Domestic shorthair. You can get a shorthaired black cat MANY different ways -- no guarantee that it's a Bombay. Bombays are fairly rare still, and reputable breeders don't let their Bombays go around mating with stray cats. A Bombay might not look like a specific breed, but it is just as specific as any other, with a specific body type, head shape, eye shape, eye color, and coat. Your cat's face shape, eye shape, and body type are very different from a Bombay -- which have a very rounded look about them, and have compact bodies like a Burmese. Your gorgeous baby looks just like a beautiful domestic shorthair.

yea i was noticing the roundness of the bombay head. isabel has a much more angled, almost acorn shaped head. shes sucha cutie pie. sad to think that someone abandoned her. i've only had her for ab a month. i live in an apt and a former tenant moved out and left her cat behind. just very wrong, but shes with me now and i will never abandon her, shes my baby!

domestic with maybe some purebreed mixed in ... lovely cat, beautiful kittens. BTW, kittens give away her and the male's genes... so she's probably just a domestic.
