RE: Welcome To The Instructional Breeding Project II
Now, after seeing Week 1 and Week 2 Kittens, I'd be chomping at the bit to put Arti with a partner capable of revealing what she has.
So far we know her hidden eye color and whisker color ...
But the ears are "rounded or better" and the tail is "curious or better" and the whiskers are "curious or better." -- I'd want to give her a mate with the "or better" already!
If the boxes are going to be unpacked some time in the future to help with analyzing Arti ... I'd be thinking about what the grand-children / great grandchildren will look like. Actually they'll be cute (they'll look like Sydney -- maybe with Mama Arti's ears. whiskers, and tail).
But the whole line forevermore is going to be affected by Sydney's traits, and if you find something great, you want the starter-mate to add something excellent to the discovery. It's a good thing you didn't pick a mate with objectionable traits (I've done that ... had whole lines stuck with the original not-favorite eye color of the starter mate, etc).
Anyway, I admire your patience, and appreciate your careful explanations!
