I know that this isn't technically a breeding question, but I think some of you breeders will have more perspective and experience in helping me.

So, some of you may have seen my thread on my mysterious balding kitten, if not long story short I rescue pregnant cats from bad situations, we had a female give birth last month to a litter of kittens. The coal black one began loosing its fur at a week old, the fur loss was not all over the body, but was not patchy either. Veterinarian stumped. After total fur loss over the main body area new grey/white fur began to grow in, New fur is wavy.
Well, I had this weird realization that her new fur coloration and patterning is like that of what I see described as seal point color.
Now, firstly-- are seal points born looking different? My girl was born coal black and then began to loose her fur at around a week old.
Secondly, has there ever been any DSH seal points? I seem to find mostly Persians, Ragdolls and Himalayans google search.
Her mother is a dark tabby, her siblings are two tabbys (one light and one dark), and a solid blue/grey. I have no idea about her father as she was a rescue.
