1. The breed is the housecats group which is recognized by the international felinological organizations. Thoroughbred call animals whose family tree is confirmed with club. Buying a kitten in the certified nursery, you can be sure of ""noble"" origin of your pet. In a family tree the breed of a kitten, names of three generations of his ancestors and features of a color of an animal are specified.
2. In case of lack of a family tree, the cat is considered not purebred even if her color allows to assume at it thoroughbred parents. It is possible to compare an exterior of your cat to typical representatives of breeds according to photos in the atlas of cats (such atlases are in bookstores and on the Internet: http://funcats.by/breeds/ or http://www.kotikoshka.ru/atlas/). Besides, features of a color and character of a cat have to correspond to standards of a certain breed: http://help-cats.narod.ru/cats4.php.htm
3. If you took a little kitten without documents or picked up him on the street, then with determination of breed it is better not to hurry. The fact is that some features of a color are shown only at adult animals. For example, white cats often on the head at children's age have dark stains which disappear subsequently.
