Grey Cat Mauve colored Paws

[GuyandCat]

Are there certain Breeds that have this distinct color for paws.?

 

[GoldyCat]

The breed standard for blue Abyssinians (dilute of Ruddy) allows only mauve paw pads. Russian Blue cats may have lavender, pink, or mauve paw pads. My blue and white DSH kitty had some pink and some mauve paw pads.

I haven't looked up any other breeds, but I think mauve may be a fairly common paw pad color for blue (grey) cats.

Paw pad colour is always related to coat colour, some standards will use different terms for the same basic colour.

The paw pads are usually determined by the coat color and patterns. Some colors/ breeds have mauve paw pads, sometimes blue cat coats, they can have gray paw pads as well. My torties had mixed color paw pads of pink and black. My Syb, a calico with a lot of white had pink pads. My other kitties have had or have mostly black or grayish pads, Quinn who is a siamese sealpoint has dark pads but they look more dark brown than black. Merlin, a ginger tuxedo has pink pads and lots of freckles on his mouth/ lips etc.
