  Hi everyone,
  
  
  
  We have a litter of 5 kittens here, (our first litter) can you help us determine colors and patterns? 
  
  
  The father is a Lilac mitted Lynx, and the mother Seal point lynx (with chocolate)
  
  
  
  
  The are almost 8 weeks now.
  
  
  
  
  
  Kitten Red
  
  
  
  
  We think she is Lilac or Blue mitted.

  Hi and welcome...
  
  Adorable kittens!!!
  
  I don't know anything about identifying colours.\
  
  The red kitten looks a lot like Fluffy (who is lilac) when he was a kitten, but that does not mean the red kitten is actually a lilac. I'm not a breeder, just a regular kitty mum.
  
  Maybe an experienced breeder can help you?

  The genetic charts at rfci.org should help you identify the possibilities.
  
  For color, look to the darkest areas (and compare within the litter) - ears and noses
  (for non-bicolors).
  
  For lynx, to avoid confusion by ghost banding, look for white eye and ear liner.
  
  Patterns can be Mitted and Colorpoint.
  
  Give time for development. Early decisions are harder. For prospective pet owners, tell them your current opinion, but remind them that can change. One of the fun parts of pointed cats is changes as they mature. If someone wants to be sure, then dna color testing can be done.
  
  Congrats on the babies.

  next week we go to the vet for vaccination and chipping, our vet also breeds ragdolls and she is also the owner of the stud. so we hope to know more then
  the future owners don't really care, they all stay in the family,
  it's more that we would like to know and learn ourselves.

  Hi Mich
  
  That's so cool - thanks for the update! Fluffy is a lilac point (not mitted) and I thought the red kitten looked a lot like him when he was a baby kitty.

  Will be fun watching their colors come in as they grow.
