Hi everyone!
I was wondering what color my is because i would like to know if shes actually a tortie?
She's a british longhair cat and on her papers it said shes a lilac point but i dont think that she is. But when she was a small baby it was really hard to tell. I think maybe she's a blue tabby point but... one of her ears is kind orange and she's got some orange on her paws also. And i hope you can see but she got some blue shading on her back wich is darker in wintercoat. What do you guys think?

She’s so pretty! I would describe her coloring as blue lynx point. I think that, for her to be a tortie point, she would have more cream.

I think she is dilute tortie point. You can just barely make out a few cream streaks in the dark areas, like over her left eye and the tip of her tail. From what I can see, her paws look mottled, too, but the pics don't show enough of her paws to say for sure.

Very pretty!

I think you are correct that she looks like a dilute tortie lynx point (dilute torbie point). Her legs and back have a mottled appearance, and there is at least one cream stripe on her face here.

It might be a good idea to change the color on her registration, so that you don't run into any problems registering her kittens or grand-kittens in the future. Let's say for example that you bred her to a lilac male... if she has a blue patched tabby (dilute torbie) kitten, the pedigree will appear incorrect if she is registered as a lilac point, because that color would not be possible if you bred a lilac male to a lilac point female. I suggest that you discuss it with the breeder that you got her from.

Well thats a really good idea! I didnt even have thought about that. So stupid of me and she is having kittens in about a week and the breeding male is a solid lilac hahaha. But i can't contact her breeder anymore she stopped and cant find her. But its no problem because i think i just dont get a pedigree for the kittens because their all gonna stay in the family and get fixed and mommy also. Because really the stress is too much for me hahaa but thanks for that!

For any one wondering why this happend. The points on a pointed cat start out smaller and extend when they get older. This is al picture of her when she was al little baby.
