Yesterday my wife and I went to the shelter and adopted a five month old purebred siamese (technically a colorpoint shorthair) we've named Finnegan. After Athena passed away last month we wanted another rescue cat. He's a great big sweetie...very energetic and confident without being pushy/aggressive about it.
I was curious about his color though. He was listed as a flame-point and I know he's still young and hasn't fully colored all the way, but from what I'm reading I don't think he is a flame-point. I think he may be an apricot point. He has the faint peachy color to his points, almost invisible on his legs, much stronger on his tail and ears, and faint on his face. From what I am reading of the apricot point, there can be a faint gray sheen to the color points. He seems to have this, especially visible on his nose.
This is the best pic of him we could get- he's very active and doesn't like holding still for very long. I was just curious if people think he is a red/flame point, an apricot point, or a cream point. It doesn't really matter, we'll love him all the same, I just like being accurate.
PS. He's not polydactyl, he just has really big feet that he was waving around.
