just reading another post abot a lovely kitty and have ready many others about colouring and how that is passed down so now i am intrigued marley is almost 10 months now , when we picked her up.. we were told mum was a pedigree chocolate persian(we saw mum and she was for sure a chocolate persian(not sure of she was registered?)), we saw dad who was a russian blue... she has 3-4 siblings who were all the same colouring....

so im thinking mum was chocolate coloured , dad was blue , yet marley looks black to me?? i have noticed the tiniest white hairs scattered all over they are longer then her normal coat.... since shes grown most seems to have dissapeared... what do you think???

she doesnt look persian to me for sure , so im thinking she has daddys features??? the lady we bought her from was a siamese breeder, they were beautiful and she had them all seperated in different rooms as she was breeding one of them... do you think marley was an *accident * i love her anyway just so interested in this colouring?

marley when we bought her home 8 1/2 weeks(or so we were told?)









marley around 4 months



marley around 7 months



marley now! :0)
