Hey everyone, this is my first time posting here and I was wondering if people could guesstimate what my new baby has in him. I know that he is a mutt but I've never saw a cat with features like him before. These photos are from when he was at the rescue, to 10 weeks old.

He is really active (probably because he is a baby), brave, friendly, and vocal.

Its momma and littermates, or are them fosters to this momma? The all white is odd here, unless he is really a point him too.

Re your boy. His coloring and pattern is quite odd. But two of the littermates seems to be ticked tabies, so my guess will be, he is ticked tabby too. Although unusual dark on the backside.

Yup, the black cat is the momma and the others are his littermates. It gets even weirder with the 5 of them, as both of the white ones are his brothers and the gray ones are his sisters. He was the odd one out lol

Ooo thank you. I had thought he might be a tickled tabby from the baby photo, but then his colors got so interesting as he grew up. So I just started calling him a brown tabby since it fit

Beautiful ticked tabby! I'm guessing he will probably end up looking a little more like a ruddy, ticked tabbies usually lighten up as they mature.

!!! Ooo, I didn't know that ruddy, ticked tabbies were even a thing. I looked up some photos of them and there are a few that look really close to him~ they even have the black spine length mohawk that he has going on. Thank you!!
