what about a solid blue, green-eyed, longhaired female + a chocolate mackerel tabby, 20% white, yellow eyes? male is heterozygous for agouti and dilute.

If the female carries chocolate, the kits will have a 50/50 chance of being chocolate or lilac. Otherwise, they’ll all be black or grey. Each kit has a 50/50 chance of being dilute (lilac or grey) vs. non-dilute (chocolate or black). Each kit has a 50/50 chance of being solid vs. mackerel tabby. Each kit also has a 50/50 chance of having 0-60% white spotting vs. none at all.

would a pure black tom and a gray bicolor molly with 60% white spotting make gray tom and gray or black mollies? would the white spotting be around the same percentage of the mom or less? :0

If the tom carries dilute, then yes, they can have grey and black kits. No tabbies, though.

The kits will be able to have anywhere from 0-60% white spotting -- basically, they can have as much as their mother or as little as their father or anywhere in between!

What would a black tom (whose parents were black-and-white and a gray tabby) and a blue-gray she-cat (whose parents were blue-gray and a light brown spotted tabby) kits look like?

Black kits and blue/grey kits! Probably about a 50/50 spread there.

Hello! Could I have the offspring results for 1) a blue-grey molly (solid carrying mackerel tabby) with <40% white (on chest and paws) and a white masking ginger mackerel tabby tom (brown is chocolate, carries dilute), and 2) the offspring of a curly cream classic tabby molly with <40% (tuxedo markings, brown is chocolate, Selkirk curly coat carrying non-curly) and a white masking chocolate classic tabby tom (carrying dilute) please? Thank you <3

1.) Okay, the kits will be non-red toms and tortie she-cats. Either half or all of them will be white-masked like the father. If the molly carries chocolate, half the kits will be chocolate and half will be black-based (black, brown tabby with black stripes, or grey). Otherwise, all the kits will be black-based.

Either all of them will be mackerel tabbies or, if the tom carries solid, half will be mackerel tabbies and half solid. If the tom carries dilute, half will be dilute and half non-dilute; otherwise, they will all be non-dilute. Half the kits will have about the same level of white-spotting as their mother, and half will have none like their father. 

2.) The kits of this pairing can be red toms and tortie she-cats. Either half or all of them will be white-masked like the father. Half the kits will have Selkirk curly coats like their mother. Unless both parents carry cinnamon(a bit unlikely), all the kits will be chocolate (if both parents carry cinnamon, about a quarter of the kits will be cinnamon). 

If both parents carry solid, about a quarter of the kits will be solid. Otherwise, they will all be classic tabbies. If the tom carries dilute, about half the kits will be dilute (cream toms and lilac-cream tortie she-cats). Otherwise, they will all be non-dilute.Half the kits will have about the same level of white-spotting as their mother, and half will have none like their father.

What could a black tom with 40% white (Carries dilute, and mackerel tabby), and a blue-gray molly (Solid, carries classic tabby) with 30% white produce together?

About half the kits will be black and about half will be blue-gray -- they will all be solid. About half will have some white but no more than 60% (probably about similar amounts to their parents), about 25% will have no white at all, and about 25% will have quite a bit of white (about 40-100%).

What kits would a heterogeneous shorthair black tom not carrying dilute and a homogeneous longhaired gray molly have?

Half the kits will be shorthair, half the kits longhair.

Black kits, and grey kits!

Could a dark gray tom (heterogeneous shorthair, 0% white), and a blue molly (homogeneous longhair, 0% white), have black tom kittens that are homogeneous longhair, 0% white?

All kits would have to be blue/gray. Black kits would not be possible I’m afraid. But longhairs totally would be!

What would the kits of a blue she-cat with 70% white and a brown mackerel tabby tom look like?

Brown mackerel tabbies! All will have less than 50% white on them!
