British Shorthair
Round and massive. Round face with round underlying
bone structure well set on a short thick neck. The forehead should
be rounded with a slight flat plane on the top of the head. The
forehead should not slope.
|

Rounded and broad but not a sphere. Powerful
jaw; full cheeks, with mature males having larger jowls. High,
softly contoured forehead; nose straight and of medium length/width;
with a slight stop at eye level. Muzzle comparatively small, narrow
and tapered with slight pads. Sweet, smiling expression. Neck
short and heavy set.

Korat
When viewed from the front, or looking down
from just back of the head, the head is heartshaped with breadth
between and across the eyes. The eyebrow ridges form the upper
curves of the heart, and the sides of the face gently curve down
to the chin to complete the heartshape. Undesirable: any pinch
or narrowness, especially between or across the eyes.
|
Russian Blue
Smooth, medium wedge, neither long and tapering
nor short and massive. Muzzle is blunt, and part of the total
wedge, without exaggerated pinch or whisker break. Top of skull
long and flat in profile, gently descending to slightly above
the eyes, and continuing at a slight downward angle in a straight
line to the tip of the nose. No nose break or stop. Length of
top-head should be greater than length of nose. The face is broad
across the eyes due to wide eye-set and thick fur.
