Meaning Of ‘Type’ In Feline Terminology

Type- The term “type” in feline terminology basically means the head and body features, including the cat’s size and shape, that characterize a breed. Sometimes this term is used on a more loosely basis to refer to a non-pedigree cat’s resemblance to a particular breed. An example of this might be said of such a cat that is “a good specimen of the Exotic Shorthair type”. This does not actually mean that it is a pedigree Exotic Shorthair, but only that it shares the general conformation of that particular breed.
