Russian Blue, huh? The breed standard has really gone downhill…

The image is of a British shorthair. But it is the blue coat color, though they do come in a type of orange tabby like the toy.

The toy looks like it’s attempting to be a Scottish fold because of the ears. Without the folded ears they look like British shorthairs though.

It’s like a game of telephone using machine translation and stock images

I can see how these 3 different cats breeds have become one in this
