statistically speaking it is unlikely but not impossible for them to produce a solid colour because both parents have to carry for solid and both give the solid gene - whereas only ONE gene for tabby is needed for the cat to be tabby. IF both parents (and it has to be both) carried solid then the chances would be that 1/4 (25%) of the offspring would be solids.

Did you not see your girls mum?

other way round - one of the parents has to be a tabby to produce a tabby as tabby isn't carried - it's either there, and the cat is tabby, or not there at all, and the cat is solid.

EDIT - note to self remember to multi-quote!!!!

Re: genetics/ colourings

unfortunatly i didnt see her mum, but i know the people i got her from, so i could find out, they couldnt find her a good home, they had rough looking people wanting her so we said we would take her and they brought her here.

I know her mum was slim, and was around the same age as my Jazzy (14 months) when she had her litter, and she had 6 kitts, my Jazzy was the only female in the litter and was the 1st to do everything.
