Cat Picture - OC New to the cat world and recently adopted two kittens! Even though they’re from the same litter their fur is extremely different. Any idea on their breed?

Welcome to the world of cats! You can get all sorts of surprises from the same litter. Apparently they can even have different dads fathering the same litter. You've got a lovely DSH and a DLH/DMH - basically breedless cats. Less than 5% of cats have a breed, and pretty much every trait seen in those breed cats is very much present in the domestic/breedless population (except for maybe Bengal rosettes). So the only way of actually knowing whether a cat has a breed is with a pedigree, otherwise it's much more likely that they're domestic floofballs.
