Wow!

I present to you the gamer queen Atari and her 4 cartridges: Arcade(m), Pinball(f), Ping(m) and Pong(f)!

Atari was a stray me and my fiancee took in early January, and since no one really had any experience with cats, we weren't expecting her to be carrying babies - now they're 5 months old and there's always someone with the zoomies.

They're not exactly uncommon, but could I get an ID for them? And maybe some clues on how the father might have looked? Pong has longer fur than her siblings, and all of them are somewhat striped, even Arcade under the right lighting.

atari is a black broken mackerel tabby!

pong looks like a blue self point, ping looks like a black self point, pinball looks like a black mackerel tabby and arcade looks like a black self!

really cool example of how recessive genes can result in a very different looking litter.

as for the father, he was a black based cat, either showing or carrying solid, and either showing or carrying point, with little to no white

those little stripes are called ghost striping, and show up in cats who aren’t genetically tabby!
