Wow! Coco is a beautiful cat! Its very likely that Coco has a few different breeds in her mix but my guess with those ear tuffs is that she has Maine Coon in there. She also has a triangular head so that makes me believe that Siamese is likely there are well. A company called Wisdom Health is developing a breed analysis genetic test for cats. Be watching for it as you may be interested in accurately knowing what makes up Coco. Thank you for using Pet Coach!
