It is possible the breeder is experiencing difficulty registering. Tica under the old system had a catastrophic backlog after a flood, and Covid, etc. The new system is up and running but old cases are still slowly being cleared.

Sharing some pictures of a Tennessee Rex kitten, a breed in development with a satinrex coat.

I think you have a spotted Bobtail kitten.

I meant the kittens carried one copy of satin and one copy of glitter so neither was expressed. We haven’t seen any cat’s homozygous for glitter and satinrex so no idea how that would express. I don’t think they would cancel each other out though.I didn’t read Chris’s paper but I heard about the...

In the USA there is a breeder working with a similar coat, you can find her by looking up American satin. Chris Kaelin is at University of Stanford he discovered the glitter gene, but you can find the test at many genetic labs. Before the test the Tennessee Rex breed could only prove we...

Lovely coats

You can rule out the Tennessee Rex breeds satinrex mutation by looking at the whiskers. They are curly or fragile and broken. After that test breeding could prove if compatible or same as Tennessee Rex. Test breeding is only method to rule in or out that mutation as it has not been located yet...

The American Satin is a breed in development with a sparkly coat. It may be glitter, as that is a domestic gene unrelated to Asian leopard used in the foundation of the Bengal breed. Bengal is the only breed so far using the glitter mutation. The first step to rule out glitter and prove it’s a...

look under tail, and at roots for stark white , usually in a smoke you see some white showing through on face, but low grade smoke can be harder to see

These are Tennessee Rex, it is a mutation and a registered breed. I don't see Satinrex here.

I have heard a theory where if cat can rest, and keep empty the digestive tract there is some possibility the stretched out section can shrink and gain motility. It probably depends on extent and cause of problem. My friend tried the advice and unfortunately it didn’t work with hers but others...

What’s often not on the label is digestibility% and that would be most helpful. Less fiber might be better, I think it depends on the fiber and that info might be impossible to know.
