Mira's litter is almost 6 weeks old now, and Kiki (my roomie's cat and also Mira's sister) had hers today. There are 3, 2 female and 1 male, just like Mira's litter. The girls are both orange, the boy is pure white. It's ironic how I've been looking for a white cat, and just applied to adopt one, and Kiki gives birth to one.
No idea how he's white either; Kiki is a dilute tortoise-shell just like Mira, and the daddy (who also fathered Mira's litter) was orange. Cat genetics are just strange, I guess.
By the way, what is the real description of a cat with "tiger" stripes? Kiki's girls and all of Mira's babies (and also the father of the whole lot) have these markings so it's just nice to know. Penny is what I think is called "ticked" too, where each individual hair has different bands of color? Correct me if I'm wrong on that please.
But they all seem healthy and are doing well. Will be keeping you guys posted as they grow up.
