Links won't work for me. But if you did not receive a pedigree and registration papers for your cat, then you have a domestic long or shorthair cat of no particular breed.

Very pretty kitten! Since you clearly didn't buy it from a breeder it wouldn't be any breed. Kittens of particular breeds only come from the mating of pedigreed cat to pedigreed cat of the same breed. And they're only found at breeders where they're sold for $600 or more. They also make up less than 3% of all cats on this planet.
Your kitten would be considered a "domestic longhair". Coat colour/pattern is Chocolate Lynx Point.

This little cutie doesn't seem to be any specific breed, though it's possible it may be a mix with some recent ancestor of a breed (like maybe part Ragdoll -- but does not look like pedigree Ragdoll. and could just be entirely moggy. So they would just be called "domestic longhairs". which means either random-bred cats or a mix of breeds or unknown ancestry .
The colour /pattern looks like it's going to be seal point with those black paw pads and black nose; it's just that colour is still developing and sometimes while the colour is coming in you can see tabby markings on a seal point kitten. But real tabby (lynx) points usually have a sort of brick colour nose outlined in the colour of the tabby stripes ( just like most tabby cats do). I do know of one seal tabby point with a black nose but it surprised a long time breeder. And your kitten also has the very dark paw pads, and the lower legs look like they are already getting a very dark solid point colour. So I say seal point. It is normal you can see some striping on the legs higher up. In fact in pointed breeds that is even allowed in show for kittens.
Definitely not chocolate lynx point as someone said. the paw pads,nose and the very dark paws are just way too dark for that. Chocolate is lighter brown. not this black. Chocolate points have a rosy brown nose leather and paw pads. and chocolate lynx point would have the usual tabby nose and pads.
Very cute kitten! Make sure to get it to the vet if you haven't yet. The kitten will need shots and deworming if not already done. and you can talk to the vet about setting up spay or neuter. Some kittens hit puberty by 4 months!
