My cat Mizu is an indoor/outdoor cat (I didn't know what age she was because I found her abandoned) she is a small long-haired black and brown cat. By the time I realized she was in heat, I saw a white feral flame point Siamese male cat "get" her. She was freaked out poor thing, and wouldn't let me catch her and wouldn't respond to my calls. She finally let me bring her inside about a week later of me trying to coax her in to the house. During this time I saw the white flame point cat, a mackerel tabby, and this huge Siamese cat constantly hang around her.
What I'd like to know is what colors might her kittens favor? Would they look predominantly like her, or does she have a higher proabability of having white kittens?
This will be her only litter.

Hi Juubi,

If a female cat mates with more than one cat she'll probably have kittens fathered by each cat. You could get Siamese looking and tabby kittens, it's quite common for kittens in the same litter to have different fathers.

They're going to be very cute coming from such a pretty mother.

Keep us posted on how her pregnancy goes, I'd love to see some pictures when her babies arrive.

She herself isnt no point, no "siamese" look alike.  Right?   But she may possibly herself be a carrier of the point " siamese" gene - not very common but not unique.

Withouth this gene, she cant get any siamese-look alike kittens. No way.    Even if the father is a real siamese.  But some of the grandchildren recombined will show point appeareances.

If she has this gene and is mated by a point,  half of her kittens will be pointed, the rest non pointed carriers.

If the father is non pointed carrier, typically 1/4 of their kittens will be pointed, another one carrier, and rest - non carriers, not pointed.   Colors alike their parents.
