I ment breed
Tiger stripes, or tabby, is a description. There is no breed named Tabby. Tabby is a very common pattern, as the ancestor of our tame cats were tabbies themselves.My Tabby just had a baby would its fur (tiger stripes) be a description or a bleed
If your kitten has stripes that will tell you he has a tabby- patterned coat. A description, not a breed. If that is your little orange kitty in your avatar pic he is adorable! He is a domestic shorthair, orange tabby.My Tabby just had a baby would its fur (tiger gtripes) be a description or a bleed
Glad to hear mom and kitten are fine. Even if he doesn't look a lot like the Mom, he got his orange color from her, from the little bit of orange she has. boy kittens get the gene that determines whether their fur color has black-based or red-based pigment, only from their mother. If the mom has BOTH red-based and black-based pigment, she can give either one to a kitten.Yea mom and him are doing well if you look at mom he looks nothing like her except she does have alittle orange in her but he looks like dad and I don't know who dad is cause I didn't even know she was pregnant when I got her.
I myself wouldnt say he definitely looks shorthair, not on the photo taken diagonally from behind. And Balineses arent very longhaired...I would not think of Balinese as a comparison because to me he definitely looks shorthair, but he has a thick , kind of plush coat. so neither of those are like a Bali. ( Look at the tail. it is not a big fluffy tail like a longhair cat.)
