Genetics

[bonnycat]

Hi all
Hope your all well.
I was just wondering if anyone was good at cat genetics? What colours/patterns would I get from a black tipped female to a red smoke male (doesnt carry dilute)
Thanks for you help
Cheers
Kelly :D

the one thing i will can tell you is that pairing will produce kittens lol:).With the smokes theres so many factors to take into account.Way to complicated for simple me.I like my Bi-colours although we are working with a rare colour

[bonnycat]

Its all very confusing, but I guess I will find out if/when the mating happens - lol!

I know you would give the kitten a very loving home... and of course i would give you a discount :-D :-D

[Fran]

Thank you very much BellaK....I know where to come when I have talked hubby round :-D He thinks 6 cats is quite enough :roll:

[bonnycat]

Oh, I really hope you get you bengal. I know what its like, I longed for a ragdoll neuter for ages and finally got one last year.
If your partners anything like mine he probably wouldnt notice 1 more - lol! :lol:

[Fran]

I think he might Kelly, especially one as distinctive as a Bengal :-D
