Yes, and the critical stage as they start to wean and body immune drop.
Need extra TLC.

Not until they are 4 month. The ear shape will keep changing till then.
Right now, I twist my finger that the curl will turn out nice.

Kitten in top lefthand corner photo look promising. But anything will change.

Hi all,

They are 9 weeks old & 4 days.

Vaccinated in week 6th, will have their 2nd next week.

The first one has nice curls. In the other pictures its not curled as much - are these different cats or the same one?

They are 3 different kittens

1st, I named him "Light"
2nd, I named him "Rain"
3rd, I named her "Snow"

Light & Snow have pair of nice curled ear.
While Rain is a 1st degree curl.

Ok - they were all the same point color (I think) so I was not sure. The first really looks the best right now. Not sure on the body type as I was not evaluating that part

Light is a blue point & white boy, He got nice curl ears but not wide enough for me

Rain is a blue lynx point boy, with best temperament of all. However he is only a 1st degree curl

Snow, having a pair of wide ears, nicely curl. How I wish she is male & bicolor.
Nice body type

As both parents are CP, correct? They would all be Colorpoint due to colorpoint being a recessive and a recessive can only give a recessive.

Yes, both parent are CP,
Mum - blue lynx point with white
Dad - Red flame point

What adorable kittens! They look like they are going to be a bundle of trouble! I love their curled ears!

CP is a recessive, which means the parents only have to carry/have that recessive - they do not have to be colorpoint.

The shorthair American Curl male that was the foundation male for my Curl line was a seal lynx point, out of a brown tabby outcross sire and a brown tabby mother - both had the recessive for colorpoint

My favorite example is the vet who was startled to see two colorpoint kittens out of a solid black American Curl mom (a grand-daughter of the very first american curl - shulamith who was solid black but carried for colorpoint) and one of my colorpoint American Curl males.

Doesn't that look soooo weird ??????

Yes but in a wonderful way...since I was always hoping for a colorpoint curl in my litters
