The domestic short-haired cat should not be equated with British Shorthair, American Shorthair, or any other standard breed under the name "Shorthair", which is a breed recognized by various registries. Domestic short-haired is the most common cat in the United States, accounting for about 90-95% of their numbers. Other generic terms include home cats and cat gang (the latter can be used more specifically to refer to wild specimens). The term cat cat technically refers to the mantle pattern, but is also often used as a general term for this kind of cat.
In fancy cats, and among veterinarians and animal control agents, domestic short-haired cats can be classified by organizational specific terminology (often capitalized), such as Domestic Shorthair ( DSH ), House Cat, Shorthair ( HCS ), or Shorthair Household Pet . This kind of breed is used for the registry as well as the purpose of place/protection classification. Though not raised as a performance cat, some of the mixed breeds are actually descendants and enter cat shows that have a non-race "Household Pets" division. Show rules vary; FÃÆ' à © dation Internationale FÃÆ' à © line (FIFe) allows "every eye color, all colors and coat patterns, any length or coat texture, and any tail length" (basically, healthy cats).

The domestic short-haired cat is characterized by various colors, and is usually "back for typing" after several generations, meaning they express their coats as cat cats. It can be a color or a combination of colors. They also exhibit a variety of physical characteristics, and as a result, domestic short-haired cats in different countries tend to look different in shape and body size, as they work from different gene pools. Asian DSH cats tend to have a shape similar to Siamese or Tonkinese "classics", while European and American varieties have thicker and heavier forms. Domestically mixed domestic cats have hybrid power forms because their gene pools are diverse, so they are much more susceptible to genetic problems that cats should be carefully screened.
Due to the free breeding of domestic short-haired cats forming a distinctive landrace in large geographical areas, they have become the basis of some new formal breeds such as the European Shorthair (Celtic Shorthair), and American Shorthair.
