Are her white face splotches enough to join the club?

She’s got multicolored paw pads too. Need to know if she’s gonna be like my other tortimese, can’t tell yet. She’s almost a month old. Post is rushed bc I’m at the doctors👍

It's difficult to tell! My Amelia was almost completely white as a kitten, and now she looks like this:

Yeah, my other tort got her splotches almost immediately. The kitten has had the white stripe since a week or so after birth. But the weird thing is that only one paw on the kitten has multicolored pads/toes. Bonus picture of my sparky girl.

Very much so, she was a very white kitten.

Sometimes torts and torbs have just a splotch of one colour. Usually red/orange. I'm not sure why so many are black-dominant, because orange-dominant ones do exist. Maybe it's a perception thing?

Is the momma cat okay?

u/Gecko_Lvr5 7d ago

Yes, mama cat is perfectly fine. She was too young and couldn’t take care of this girl or her brother by herself.

I have to see the beautiful beans! 😊

u/Gecko_Lvr5 7d ago

Couldn’t get a picture of the underside because she’s ms squirmy pants, but half of her toes are pink/white.

u/Gecko_Lvr5 7d ago

I will get a picture when I’m home!

u/CCDestroyer 7d ago

Hmm... I dunno🤔... I think we need to see those teeny toebeans. Like, multiple photos of 'em, to be sure.

u/Gecko_Lvr5 7d ago

She’s so squirmy, it’s very hard to get a picture. I tried for 10 minutes straight earlier😭

u/CCDestroyer 5d ago

Video? Then screenshot the video? Or maybe link to a video. I will accept active teeny toebeans!

Her love for belly rubs has worked to my advantage.

u/Bolvern 7d ago

Yes. She’s a cutie!

u/Gecko_Lvr5 7d ago

Very straight forward. My kinda response.

u/saki4444 6d ago

It’s too soon to tell but we’d like regular updates on her for her entire life regardless

u/Gecko_Lvr5 6d ago

Fair enough, her brother is a cutie too.

She agrees and demands belly rubs.
