Re: Why is my cat this colour?????!
have you seen the mother cat mate in the past and not have any kittens afterward, im only asking because cats can store sperm from past matings and only fall pregnant when the time is right for them. plus she could of mated with several male and the kittens from the same litter could well have different fathers either way you will never know for sure

Re: Why is my cat this colour?????!
I'm afraid that just isn't true (re. sperm being stored from past matings). A female cat ovulates when mated. Sperm is only viable for a few days at most. It is true that more than one tom can be responsible for the kittens, but all matings do have to occur within a 48 hour window.

Re: Why is my cat this colour?????!
She only mated with the black boy. Her sister has also had a litter from the same male but had no pointed kittens!!!!
Another weird story is that the sister (Stitch) won't mate until Lilo (the one with these pointed kittens) is pregnant!!! And when she is giving birth Lilo will help her and Stitch will give birth where lilo's kittens are just to be together and look after them all with each other!!! They just do everything together!!! Bless!! x |

Re: Why is my cat this colour?????!
related feral cats sometime give birth at the same time and raise their kittens together too normally if their mother and daughter or from the same litter tho but it isnt as common in house cats, they must have a good bond

Re: Why is my cat this colour?????!
Your kitten sounds like a real cutie
You often hear of half siamese kittens being black, so maybe the dad had siamese in him? We have what was meant to be a jack russell. The breeders said they had crossed them with a smaller breed 5 generations back to get a smaller jr. Both parents looked like normal small jr's. The litter all looked like jr's, apart from one little brown one. We chose the brown one The breeders didn't tell us what they had crossed with all those generations ago, but as Midge grew up it became very apparent. We have a little jr x chihuahua She's only 7 inches high and everywhere we go people come up to me and ask about her. People always assume she is a chihuahua, she's just a little stockier. So perhaps your kitten is a throwback from many generations back. |

Re: Why is my cat this colour?????!
What a beautiful kitten! I would certainly say there's some Siamese in there. Siamese kittens are born white and develop their points later. Seal point is a derivative of black colouring. My local rescue centre had a seal point kitten born to a black mum last year - they had been dumped!!!

Re: Why is my cat this colour?????!
All my cats have a great bond but the sisters especially. There are pics on here of them feeding their litters together in their bed!!
I am pretty sure that the kitten is because of a siamese throw back but i just wanted to hear other opinions!! |
