Hey, so sorry to bother but im absolutely lost on this. Do you know what the kits of a classic silver tabby tom with blue eyes and a chocolate birman molly with yellow eyes look like? the tom has white spotting ;w;

Since you say the molly is birman, I’m going to assume she’s longhaired and colorpoint. If that’s wrong, feel free to send another ask with clarifying information!

Also, while we don’t usually give eye color information (since eye color is polygenetic), point cats’ eyes are always blue because point coloration is caused by albinism. Now, if your molly is a sepia/Burmese colorpoint, she could have green or gold eyes (according to the information I’ve found, at least), but the typical Birman is point/Siamese colorpoint, so unless you want to change that, her eyes will probably not be yellow. Additionally, a silver tabby tom typically cannot have blue eyes unless he has some white spotting.

Now, onto the potential kits:

If the tom carries longhair, each kit has a 50% chance of being longhair vs. shorthair. Otherwise, every kit will be shorthair.

If the tom carries chocolate, each kit will have a 50% chance of having chocolate vs. black as their baseline color. Otherwise, every kit will have black as their baseline color. If both parents carry dilute, each kit will also have a 25% chance of being dilute (chocolate > lilac, black > blue/grey). Otherwise, every kit will be non-dilute.

If the tom carries solid, each kit will have a 50% chance of being solid vs. tabby. Otherwise, every kit will be tabby. Depending on what tabby genes the molly carries (which aren’t being expressed because she’s solid), the tabby kits can be either all mackerel, all classic, or 50/50. Choose whichever you like on that front!

If the tom carries the non-silver gene, each kit will have a 50% chance of being silver (or smoke if solid) vs. not. Otherwise, every kit will be silver (or smoke if solid).

If the tom carries a copy of one of the colorpoint genes (which, for the record, is unlikely unless he has some kittypet ancestry from breeds that are colorpoint, but you know, that’s possible), each kit will have a 50% chance of being colorpoint (otherwise, none of the kits will be colorpoint). If the allele the tom carries is the Burmese/sepia gene, the colorpoint kits will be Tonkinese/mink; if the allele the tom carries is the Siamese/point gene, the colorpoint kits will be Siamese/point.

Note that silver/smoke and colorpoint are not mutually exclusive! With the right combination of genes, this couple could produce a seal pastel lynx point like this.

Hi, I have these three couples I'd like possible kittens for I hope you can help me. First are a ruddy Abyssinian tom and a longhaired bobtailed tortie molly with 70% white, a shorthair black tom with 40% white and a longhair chocolate point molly with a snowshoe pattern and finally a ginger classic tabby molly and a solid grey tom, both over 40% white and shorthaired. Thank you very much and sorry if my English is a bit bad :)

First of all, your English is great. If you hadn’t said anything, I would’ve assumed you were native.

Now, onto the cats:

Ruddy tom x tortie molly

Male kits can be red/cream-based or black-based, female kits can be black-based or tortoiseshells. If the tom carries solid, each non-red kit has a 50/50 chance of being solid vs. tabby. Otherwise, every kit will be a tabby. If the tom carries a non-ticked gene, each tabby kit will have a 50/50 chance of being a ticked tabby vs. a mackerel tabby. Otherwise, every tabby kit will be a ticked tabby. Every kit will have between 0-60% white. Unless the tom carries bobtail, each kit will have a normal-length tail. If the tom does carry bobtail, each kit will have a 50/50 chance of being bobtail.

Black tom x chocolate point molly

If the tom carries longhair, each kit will have a 50/50 chance of being longhair vs. shorthair. If he doesn’t, every kit will be shorthair. If the tom carries chocolate, each kit will have a 50/50 chance of being chocolate vs. black. Otherwise, every kit will be black. About half the kits will have 0-60% white, about a quarter will have 40-100% white, and about a quarter will have no white. Unless the tom carries pointing (unlikely), none of the kits will be point. If the tom does carry pointing, kits will have a 50/50 chance of being point.

Grey tom x ginger classic tabby molly

All kits will be shorthair. All male kits will be red/cream-based and all female kits will be tortoiseshells. If the molly carries dilute, each kit will have a 50% chance of being dilute (cream instead of ginger, blue-cream tortie instead of tortoiseshell). If the molly carries solid, each non-red kit will have a 50/50 chance of being solid vs. classic tabby (remember, red is always tabby, so ginger or cream toms and the ginger or cream patches on torties will be classic tabby for all the kits). Otherwise, every kit will be a classic tabby. About half the kits will have 0-60% white spotting. About a quarter of the kits will have 40-100% white spotting. About a quarter of the kits will have no white spotting.

What would the kits of a chocolate point molly with 100% white and a chocolate tabby tom look like?

Chocolate tabbies! All with less than 50% white on them.
