So, I have wanted a Tonkinese kitten for a very long time. I finally found a reputable breeder - but now I can't decide! They are too young to have a personality, but I have to choose one for her to hold for me when I send the deposit. I am stuck between a platinum point female (color only on face, ears, tail, feet, a lighter color body, and blue eyes) or a platinum mink female (more color on body, slightly darker body, aqua eyes). Help! Pictures below...

This one is the platinum point. Ignore the red eyes - she's not a demon - her blue eyes are just camera shy!


And this one is the platinum mink. (on the far right)

They're both way too cute for words, but my sister says that if you sit on the floor, see which one comes over to you. The cat chooses YOU. (That's how she ended up with 7 cats and a feral colony...ha ha.)

Hey guys - thanks for the input. I wish I could take both, but I can't. I live with my mom who is BARELY ok with one (and only because I lost a lot of weight). I'm 23, but she's helping me out by letting me live here to save money.

If i could wait to pick until I saw them, I would definitely let them choose me! Unfortunately, the breeder is an hour and a half away. I have to let he know which one I want and give her a deposit to hold it for me.

I chose.... the platinum point! It's what my initial instict was, but I started second guessing myself. Now, I just have to endure the wait! June 11!

Is there no way you can meet them first? I think you'll find you're drawn to one in particular, or she is to you! Thats the best way to find your perfect kitty
