Mia is gorgeous! It's hard to tell at this point in time because Ragdolls will not get their full color until they are two years of age. She looks like she has seal point, and is tortie. Check out this link for more information:

    Mia is absolutely gorgeous! I have a ragdoll myself, he's a seal tabby mitted ragdoll. From the pictures, it looks ilke she is a seal point (pale body with darker extremities), but her full colors will not be in just yet. Ragdolls will take up to two years for their full colors to come in. My ragdoll was white with dark extremities when I first got him at four months of age, and it took until he was two before the tabby marks came into his fur. If you can't get ahold of her old owner, you may just have to wait awhile before her full colors come in so you can know her type of ragdoll. Sorry I can't give you a full answer, but I hope this helps somewhat!

Vet Q & A
Can mixed Ragdoll cats produce purebred-looking Ragdoll kittens?
What a beautiful kitty! Unfortunately it can be really difficult to predict what a kitten will look like when two breeds are mixed. Habla would have more ragdoll genes than her daughter but it’s difficult to say whether or not her offspring will look more like a ragdoll, especially since she is part mixed breed. Good luck!

What breed is my black kitten with white fur? Will his color change?
Please send this kitten to me! He is adorable! He may shed out completely black or stay silver tipped. Unfortunately it is not possible to determine the breed just from color. He will of course grow a lot more, he is just a young kitten. He is probably going to be what we call a domestic medium hair or domestic long hair cat.

My cat looks Siamese, but is she a Himalayan? What's her breed?
Siamese is a cat breed. Your cat does look like a siamese or siamese mix based on the coat and eye color. The coat color can be different with this breed and your cat would be a seal point. I hope this helps and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!

What will my Himalayan Ragdoll cat's Scottish Fold kittens look like?
Hello and welcome to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. In terms of what the kittens will be like, they will be a mix of the breeds of the parents. It is impossible to predict exactly what the kittens will look like, some will likely look like the female, some like the male, and some a mix of both. I know that isn't very specific information, however the question you are asking doesn't have an answer. Best of luck!

Is my rescue cat a Snowshoe? His coat changed color as he grew.
It would be hard to tell from photos alone as cats of many breeds can have similar markings, and mixed breed cats may take on the markings of another breed. There are some genetic/DNA tests available for breed panels that may be useful, otherwise it'd just be a guess without knowing your cat's parental history.

Do kittens' fur colors change to match their mom as they grow?
No, the kittens will stay the same color they are now. Orange kittens are the friendliest and most popular here. The mother looks like a calico which is rare in male cats. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you get answers to your veterinary questions.

Vet Q & A
What breed are my Siamese-Persian mix kittens if their colors vary?
Even though none of the kittens have Siamese color, they will have genes from both their mother and father. The color of kittens depends on which genes are expressed. The kittens will be considered a Siamese-Persian mix.
