His name is Arktik. He was born pure white with just his lynx points. Over time, he developed the "buff" color onto his back and sides. I would love to know what he's considered. His mother is a torbie and I believe his father is a Balinese, there's a lot of those around here. There's a breeder down the street who lets her cats out all the time. I have no idea why ...

So, what do you guys think Artie could be in terms of defining his colors? I know he's a lynx point, but his color can't possibly be described as buff,could he? Buff is diluted orange and he has silver markings ... I know that chocolate gets diluted to mouse grey, so that doesn't describe Artie's colors. What do you guys think?



Here's Artie sleeping outside, upside down. He sleeps the same way inside. xD


This one is confusing, I know. Left to right there's Indie, Arktik, Toshi (dog), Cleo (back - Indie's sister), Oreo (front), Aero, and Butters (Butterscotch). Oh, I almost didn't see her. Se the sneaky cat behind the big silver bucket of water? That's Milkdud, Arktik's sister. She's an orange bicolor classic tabby.


And here Arktik's mom, Indiana (Indie).

Wow. What a beautiful cat. What color combination and markings! I've never seen these colors/markings all in one cat! 
Yes, he looks like an all-in-one combo of our lynx and snowshoe mixes! He's beautiful!

I agree. He carries both the Snowshoe and Lynx point genes for color. He's beautiful!

Has his mother been spayed?

bigperm20 bigperm20 Yes, she has been spayed. All of my cats are fixed and there have only been 3 cats who had litters. Indie's mother, Indie, and her sister Cleo. We only kept 3 kittens in total, but everyone is spayed now.
