Anyway, she has been my friend ever since then. I am wondering though, Do all longhair cats have curly hair on their stomachs? If anyone knows please illuminate me. My cat Hairy is also a longhair with curly stomach hair, so by my observations the answer would seem to be yes.

I was searching thru cat breeds and happened upon "turkish van," they have similar markings. 10 years ago a friend of mine rescued her from a farm where she was a litter runt soon to become raccoon food. 3 weeks later I rescued her from my friends' 1 year old. The child sat on her and dislocated her leg from the hip socket.

She has interesting coloring - with the orange in her tail but not on her body.
