Chinchillas have very long silky hair like Persians (they're a particular colour of Persian, with the smoke gene I think so only the tips of the long hair are pigmented iirc.)
I think that looks like a British Shorthair or closely related breed - or possibly Exotic Shorthair, although the face doesn't look quite Persian enough.
Singapuras are absolutely tiny and very dainty - they're like miniature cats so if this one looked normal cat sized it's not that
EDIT: I had to look up the info about Singapura weight as didn't know it off the top of my head - females average 1.8kg, males average 2.7kg - they really are tiny.

Bernard having a few coughing fits tonight. Or pretty sure it's coughing. It's different to the yakking sound. Will have to keep an eye on that, but right now he's curled up in the mrs' fluffy robe as a nest on the bed.
I was going to put a picture there, but you could see way too much of the floordrobe in the shot and I'd get told off for it.

Found a cat tree dumped in the street.
Made Marv test it out.

He only stayed in the top briefly when I put him there but he does use the lower platform.

That's a great cat tree. I'd quite like one for Carrie as she loved the one at her foster carers' and she does like being high up. Although perhaps it would be less interesting now she can go out.

They made Baby Yoda. If they ever do a Baby Chewie then this is definitely the way to go!

I actually looked up that cat tree and it's £160. This is why I haven't bought one. The risk of it not being used is too high, apart from anything else.

These cat trees get pretty good use. At the moment Tabitha likes to perch at the top of the red tree after she eats. The shelf on the left is her designated "cuddle shelf" because when I pick up her 7kg she gets heavy and I need to rest her down. But she likes to sit in my arms on the shelf.
Lidl and Aldi have cat trees in the middle when it's pet week. Might not be as tall but iirc they are about a quarter to a third of that price.

We got a big one from Aldi about 8 years ago for £20. Our boys played on it for about a few weeks then lost interest. Gave it to a friend and her kitten took to it immediately and still sleeps on it today as an adult. One cat’s trash is another’s treasure

Brilliant pic - it’s like she’s endorsing the blurb on the side as well

Carrie's foster family said the tree comes out of the shed when a new cat arrives and if it's not interested it goes back.We got a big one from Aldi about 8 years ago for £20.

I'm currently knitting her a bed. Actually she's been quite good so far at sitting in cosy spots I've prepared for her and playing with toys I've bought her. Cat springs were a fail though.
