When organizing their crew, most people like to sort their petz by breed - conventionally, their face type. It can sometimes be a bit challenging to figure out which breed a pet is, but luckily there's one handy way to check: by simply looking at a pet's "pick a pet" image. Each breed - or rather, each type of head/face - bears slight differences in this image. Since some of the breeds look a lot alike in-game, it can be easier to tell them apart this way. Below, you'll find a brief discussion of how to recognize each breed using the "pick a pet" image. Additionally, for quick reference, you can find a basic image of all the breeds here.

Cat breeds

The Alley Cat is easy to discern by its angry, odd-sized eyes. The B&W Shorthair tilts its head backwards, with somewhat angry eyelids. The Siamese has the same angry expression, but tilts its head slightly forwards. It can also by recognized by its narrow, triangular face, which does not have the same big, round cheeks as the other breeds. The Calico and Tabby both hold their heads horizontally, with relaxed eyelids. Between these two, the calico has smaller eyes (the tabby's eyes are big enough to touch), but the muzzle balls are bigger. The Chinchilla Persian and Persian are the only pink-nosed breeds. Furthermore, the Chinchilla's face appears larger and more detailed in the "pick a pet" picture. The Maine Coon's eyelids are relaxed, and its head tilted forward. One if its eyelids is perfectly horizontal - the same is true for the B&W Shorthair, but this breed has an angry expression rather than a relaxed one. The Orange Shorthair has large eyes sporting a more or less relaxed expression, and a rather big nose. Its chin ball appears a bit misaligned to its muzzle. Finally, there is the Russian Blue, which is more turned towards the camera. It can be told apart from the Alley Cat (which is also turned towards the camera) by its relaxed eyelids.
