Op, just so you know most house cats are either domestic long hair or short hair. They are not usually a specific breed unless they have specific traits such as super big ears, curled ears, no fur ect. I don’t think people are trying to be rude it’s just this question gets asked a lot on this subreddit whenever 9 times out of 10 it’s just a domesticated long or short hair. :)

just letting you know "tabby" is not a breed, it's a fur colour. Just like Calico, tortoise, white, black ect.
