It's Week 7 and the luck just keeps coming! We got three awesome kitties this week!
1. The first kitten is from Poppy and her new partner, Limerick:
? New Born Kitten
Fur: Balinese - Blue Lynx
Eyes: Grape Ice (Curious|Small)
Shade: Natural
Tail: Plush
Ears: Genesis
Whiskers: Silver (Curious)
Size: Normal
Parents:
MOM: Poppy
Fur: Genesis - Diamond III
Eyes: Genesis Water (Curious|Big)
Shade: Natural
Tail: Genesis
Ears: Genesis
Whiskers: Silver (Guitar)
Size: Normal
DAD: Limerick
Fur: Ocicat - Ebony Silver
Eyes: Lucky Irish Clover (Mysterious|Small)
Shade: Flair
Tail: Big Boo Boo
Ears: Soft Fold
Whiskers: White (Curious)
Size: Normal
Limerick's Ebony Silver fur was able to pull out Poppy's hidden Blue Lynx Fur, and his Lucky Irish Clover eyes brought out Poppy's hidden Grape Ice. We also see that we once again pulled out the Small Pupil shape and Poppy's hidden Plush tail. The Curious whiskers came from Limerick since we know that Poppy is hiding the more recessive Stubby Whisker Shape. Therefore, this kitty is hiding Stubby whiskers.
2. Our second kitten is from breeding Week3 and Week4 together (again). Last week they gave us a 5-traited Blue Lynx; this week they gave us a very nice 7-traited Blue Lynx:
? New Born Kitten
Fur: Balinese - Blue Lynx
Eyes: Grape Ice (Curious|Small)
Shade: Porcelain
Tail: Big Boo Boo
Ears: Mysterious
Whiskers: White (Guitar)
Size: Normal
Parents:
MOM: Week4Kitten
Fur: Balinese - Blue Lynx
Eyes: Genesis Water (Curious|Big)
Shade: Natural
Tail: Plush
Ears: Mysterious
Whiskers: Silver (Curious)
Size: Normal
DAD: Week3Kitten
Fur: Russian - Black
Eyes: Grape Ice (Curious|Big)
Shade: Natural
Tail: Genesis
Ears: Mysterious
Whiskers: White (Guitar)
Size: Normal
This is a pretty nice kitty! We can see the Blue Lynx fur and the Grape Ice eyes that originally came from Poppy: Both Week4Kitten and Week3Kitten are Russian Black but they were both hiding Poppy's Balinese Blue Lynx fur, so this is another pure Balinese Blue (this kitten got both Mom's hidden Blue Lynx and Dad's hidden Blue Lynx, therefore this kitten has Blue Lynx showing and hiding). Dad shows the Grape Ice eyes and Mom shows the Genesis Water eyes, therefore this kitty's Grape Ice eyes came from Dad, and is hiding Mom's hidden eye (the Gerbera Purple or Lucky Irish Clover from Ricky).
This kitten shows Porcelain shade!! Both Mom and Dad showed Natural (genesis) shade, therefore they must have both been hiding Porcelain (Ricky's hidden shade) and passed it to this kitten (making the Porcelain shade pure).
This kitten's tail is the hidden Big Boo Boo tail from either Mom or Dad (Mom shows Poppy's hidden Plush tail and hides Big Boo Boo from Ricky, which we figured was pure, and Dad shows Poppy's Genesis tail, so he's also hiding the Big Boo Boo tail from Ricky.) Either way, both parents hide the Big Boo Boo tail so this kitten's Big Boo Boo tail must also be pure.
The kitten has Mysterious ears; these could have come from either Mom or Dad, we don't know. That means it's possible that, since Mom and Dad are hiding Ricky's shown Soft Fold or hidden Rounded ears, this kitten might have received one of those as its hidden ear. Of course, it could have received Mom's or Dad's shown Mysterious ears as its hidden ear also (making it pure Mysterious). There's no way to know without breeding.
This kitten's White whiskers could have come from either Mom or Dad: Mom shows Silver (genesis) Whisker Colour but hides a whisker colour from Ricky, and Dad shows and hides White whiskers. If Ricky was hiding any whisker colour other than white, we haven't found out (I've bred him with a black whisker kitty the last couple of weeks and found nothing yet). So even though it's not 100%, we're pretty sure this kitten also has pure White Whisker Colour.
3. We saved the best kitten for last!!
Week2Kitten and Bailey gave us an awesome 8-traited kitty last week, and they didn't disappoint us this week, either! Another nice 8-traited kitty, plus this one's a MEGAPUSS!! Recall that size is not a breedable trait - it's completely random, so it was very lucky that we got this gorgeous, giant kitty!
? New Born Kitten
Fur: Balinese - Blue Lynx
Eyes: Grape Ice (Curious|Small)
Shade: Flair
Tail: Plush
Ears: Curious
Whiskers: White (Plush)
Size: MegaPuss
Parents:
MOM: Week2Kitten
Fur: Russian - Black
Eyes: Grape Ice (Curious|Small)
Shade: Natural
Tail: Plush
Ears: Genesis
Whiskers: White (Curious)
Size: Normal
DAD: Bailey
Fur: Balinese - Cream Lynx
Eyes: Light Wash (Mysterious|Small)
Shade: Porcelain
Tail: Boo Boo
Ears: Curious
Whiskers: White (Plush)
Size: Normal
This kitten's fur is Mom's hidden fur - Dad's Balinese Cream Lynx is more recessive than both Russian Black and Balinese Blue Lynx, so we knew this kitten would have one or the other, and luckily we got the Blue Lynx!
This kitten got Mom's Grape Ice eyes so he must be hiding Dad's Light Wash, or whatever Dad's hidden eye trait is. Again, the Small pupil comes out because both parents show Small Pupil shape.
This kitten's Flair shade comes from Mom: Dad is showing Porcelain, which is more recessive, and Mom is showing Natural (genesis) shade. This means Mom is hiding Flair (she would have gotten this from Ricky).
The kitten's Plush tail comes from Mom's shown tail, so he must be hiding Dad's Boo boo, or whatever Dad is hiding.
The kitten's Curious ears come from Dad and we know that Mom is hiding Soft Fold or Round from Ricky, so this kitten must be hiding Soft Fold or Round.
The White whiskers on this kitty are very likely pure... as mentioned earlier, we were pretty sure Ricky had pure White whiskers. The Plush whisker shape comes from Dad, so this kitten is hiding either Mom's shown Curious whiskers, or Mom's hidden Stubby whiskers.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next week we're going to keep the partnering the same as this week, plus we'll be finding a partner for that love 8-traited kitty from Week 5. We're also going to unbox the 7-traited Blue Lynx with Porcelain for this week in an effort to add more traits to that fur and shade, and find out if he's hiding Poppy's Stubby whiskers.
We're also going to open up the MegaPuss and let him roam around just for fun
If we happen to find him a good partner, then that's a bonus, since he's also a nice 8-traited kitty.
Tune in next week to see if we get anymore fabulous kittehs!!
