Hi everyone, i have a chocolate tortie point female that was mated with a flame lynx pt-white himalayan male and the kittens are a male which looks almost white at the momment except he has pink pads on the feet and a pink nose. the female is darker shading on the body, more than my female chocolate tortie point had when she was a small kitten. I don't know what a lilac or a blue would look like to know if she is one of those colors and she is just over a week old so far. Any ideas? I asked CFA  but it is hard to tell by a chart what the colors are unless you actually looked at those colors before. Help, so I know what to tell people that are wanting a Hemi kitten. :?

Is the male a chocolate carrier?

I really don't know, i guess i should get a pedigree in him to see what his ancestry has been in colors.

Are you sure the mom cat is a chocolate tortie pt? Granted her parents, grand parents etc could be carriers but, from what looks like going back at least 3 gens there is nothing visual that has come out.

If the father is not a chocolate/lilac carrier, none of the kittens will be chocolate or lilac. Throwing in the "and white" with the dad can also effect what you are seeing with the points.

The girl sounds to be a tortie or seal pt.( their coats tend to be darker at first then lighten up) Not sure with the boy since you said his tail is getting darker but not red.
