Well, you almost guessed the hair color.

Former redhead, "almost brunette". Best I can do.

But otherwise, she doesn't look like her.

I gave you a hint - a mix of East and West.

That's no help. I assume by "East" you mean Slavic, which is pretty Cauc, to my eyes.

Here is one program's concept of the "average" Russian female (composite):

If you mean "Far East", a la Asian, that's another ballgame.

Это опять переводчик "чудит", Дэйв. Да, я имела ввиду, что я на неё не похожа.
Восток в России - это Кавказ. Когда то там жили рыжие и голубоглазые люди, а потом Кавказ завоевали турки, и он "потемнел".

У меня примерно 3/4 славянских кровей(русские, украинцы), и кавказские (мой прадед воевал на Кавказе, и женился на местной княжне).

It's the translator acting up again, Dave. Yes, I meant that I'm not like her.
The East in Russia is the Caucasus. Once upon a time, red-haired and blue-eyed people lived there, but then the Caucasus was conquered by the Turks, and it "darkened".

I tried to Google for an image of red-haired, blue-eyed Slavic woman (slow day at the office), but 95% of them are AI generated and the rest of Photoshopped. What is the world coming to?

Anyway, I'm sticking with Natasha Lyonne as my Head Canon. If you want to just go ahead and update your avatar, that'd be super-helpful.

Рыжеволосой и голубоглазой была моя бабушка. А у меня цвет глаз тёмнокарий.

We adopted a neighbor's kitten last year (now ten months old) who is some sort of fearless super athlete, always climbing trees or sprinting across the yard or stalking creatures much larger than herself. On one occasion I've seen her leap about five feet straight up and snatch a sparrow in midflight

UPDATE: Louisa May Allcat yesterday gave birth to six kittens. This is unusual for a first litter (it will be her only litter; maybe she sensed this and decided to go all out on the kittening), but it does explain why she looked like she'd swallowed a soccer ball the last couple weeks. She is a small cat, so six riders onboard had her miserable and nearly immobilized at the end. To borrow a phrase from Dave's OP, people are totally losing their shit here. I am making sure we save at least one for Pinball1970.

Он его полюбит. Кошки умеют завоёвывать сердца. Будет ругаться, чистить свой любимый ковёр от шерсти, кидаться тапками, но всё равно простит ему даже съеденный любимый цветок.

Жаль, что ты живёшь не в средние века, Мартин. Наверняка, ты с удовольствием сжёг бы меня на костре. Я красивая, распущенная, и "вью из мужчин верёвки". Одним словом - ведьма.

Это была шутка. Нам в школе на уроках истории рассказывали, что в средневековой Европе сожгли всех красивых женщин, потому что считали их ведьмами, и истребили котов, потому что считали их пособниками тёмных сил. В результате миллионы людей умерли из-за эпидемий, вызванных расплодившимися грызунами. А самые красивые женщины живут в России, в которой никогда не было "охоты на ведьм".
