If you dont have their pedigree certificate this is certainly very possible.    Most cats do not belong to any breed, however nice and adorable they are...

I wasnt aware there are black Himmies me either.  I thought the whole idea was they would be points.

Yours other, the seal point, could be a real Himmi.  Although again, without pedigree certificate from a recognized association, or at least a solid background story, nothing can be proved.

No certificate. My friend just told me they were brothers and shouldn't be separated. I looked online to see if there was any info of black himmys but there wasnt any. But were a of pics... Hmm confusing

As was stated without a pedigree or a registration you can not be 100% certain of the breed, but I believe it is possible to have a solid colored Himilayan. Some breeders may use a solid Persian to breed in type and because there is the solid gene thrown into the mix it is possible to have a pure bred solid colored Himi. In some registries a Himi is just a color class of Persians so are not considered an outcross.
