I'd like to nominate the last pic for POTM she's beautiful and full of character by the looks of it x
 
Yes I named her Diamond. She was rescued from a farm with her 2 brothers. They were all in pretty rough shape and had ringworm, respitory infections, fleas, earmites and an eye infection! I just can't believe that someone could let that happen to such sweet little kittens it's so sad. She is such a sweetheart and so well behaved, when i took her to the vet she just sat on my lap for 45 minutes in the waiting room and didn't freak out or anything.
 
She is a little cutie bless her.
Love the last pic.
 
Beautiful Kitten. I wonder if way back in her history there could be some Turkish Angora. I doubt it considering how she was treated, but you never know. She reminds me a lot of my Lily, who is a Turkish Angora who happened to also be a rescue, but she was given up at 5 months of age by inexperienced breeders. It depends on whether or not your cat has a single or double coat. Most cats have double coats, longer guard hairs and then a very soft, short, plush interior coat. The Turks gradually bred cats to remove the guard coat and then they elongated the interior hairs, so the resulting cat has a medium-long, silky-soft coat that doesn't mat at all. It also has a very different consistancy from other cats' coats.

She has the lovely wedge-face, big eyes, and huge ears that are also characteristics of the breed. She looks long-limbed as well. Something to consider. I'm not saying she is purebreed, as these cats cost a pretty penny, but she may have some of the breed. Or, she is just one gorgeous cat. Without feeling the coat, though, I wouldn't know for sure.

Congratulations, she's really lovely.
