Default What type of Syrian is Cotton?

trying desparately to up load a picture of Cotton. not very good with the tech I'm afraid. Can anyone tell me how i would describe him? Hopefully the picture will come out. He's longhaired with just a few wisps of very long fur. I think he's banded, chocolate. he has brown spots on his ears.

Thanks guys, that's interesting. I took a more critical look at his cute face this evening as he was racing around on the sofa. the front of his face is yellowish, going a light brown further back and he has the dark cheek stripes and also a stripe like a crest. i hadn't noticed the cheek stripes before.
