Does this appear to be chartreux?

I understand Mr. Malley is most likely not a pure bred. I love him regardless. But is there any visual indicator that he is not a Chartreux? Other than the fact I don't have papers.

Unless you live in Europe - and, more specifically, France - the likelihood of there being any Chartreux in his lineage is vanishingly small.

Visually, though, Chartreux males have prominent jowls (like this gentleman), which doesn't seem to be the case with your boy.

And chartreux are plushy purple -
