The adult is a bicolor ragdoll, and the kitten is a mitted colorpoint ragdoll.

Thats exactly the kind of kitten I hve, but the store said that he's a persian. What do I do if my parents believe he's a persian? I KNEW IT ALL ALONG HE LOOKS NOTHING LIKE A PERSIAN!!

Let your parents believe whatever they want to believe

Unless of course he's pedigreed, and you're concerned you might have gotten the wrong paperwork.

I think the kitten is a Birman, look at his feet. A Persian has a flatter face and more of a squashed nose. Birmans are cute though. why dont you post a picture of your cat.

No, no, no --- no reason to panic! If he has any white on his paws then yes, he would be a Birman most likely. Otherwise he would be a colorpoint Persian. What color do your papers say he is? At one point the Himalayan was considered a separate breed (due to the introduction of Siamese blood to create the pointed colors) but within the last decade or so the registries have been combined as any Siamese blood is so far back I doubt it even would show up on any pedigrees.

From the description you gave of him, I'd say you have the right papers

I was worried because I showed a picture to a friend and he thought it was ragdoll, he has 2 of them. I'm relieved!
