Hi everybody,
one year ago me and my wife bought this wonderful Scottish fold girl, her name is Apple. We were not practical with breedings etc.. so we did not noticed a possible error in her pedigree.
It's possible to have a Silver Black Tortie Tabby Ticked cat from a Red mother and a Silver Chocolate Tabby Ticked father?
Thank you, all the help will be appreciated!

Im not so good as @Willowy   on some of the fine intricaties, but for me it seems fully feasible.  As long as we accept chocolate as a sort of black...  IF so, all ingredients are there to cook up your girl.   :)

Haha, it's kind of hard to find the info because chocolate isn't an approved color in the most common breeds so there's not much discussion about it. But from what I can find, yes, a chocolate sire can have black offspring. The chocolate color is black-based. So I see no reason to doubt it.

She's so cute! Those pictures are to die for :D.
