[amber-tortoiseshell]

I'd be interested to see your genetically accurate headcanons for Oatclaw and Feathertail's kits :D they're some of my favorite characters (Whistlebreeze's big caring family my beloved <3) and there's also so many different colors among the kits, it could be fun to learn how that would work and which patterns are realistic. :)

So we have the following characters here:

Oatclaw: pale brown tabby

Featherpelt: gray tabby

Whistlebreeze: gray tabby

Flutterfoot: brown-and-white

Songleap: tortoiseshell

Grassfur: auburn

Branchleap: white

Leafcurl: mostly white with some dark gray spots on her flank and on one ear

Neither parent has any white, which would mean the kits shouldn't have it either; but since Flutterfoot seems to pass his to his daughter Stretchkit i decided to gave Oatclaw white paws. The younger two, Branchleap and Leafcurl will be points, to be at least whitish.

Other problem: Songleap got a red allele from nowhere, so either i had to make her non-tortie, make Featherpelt tortie, or make Oatclaw red-based. I chose the last, because Featherpelt's family is pure black-based for generations, and if you squint pale brown can be interpreted as cream. However this makes all the other girls torties as well, and Featherpelt has to be dark to have brown Flutterfoot. Oh well, black tabbies can be gray looking.

Auburn is a mysterious description; i decided to make Grassfur a simple black tortie tabby. Songleap will be solid blue tortie for contrast.

Oatclaw: cream with white

Featherpelt: black mackerel tabby

Whistlebreeze: blue tortoiseshell blotched tabby

Flutterfoot: black mackerel tabby with white

Songleap: blue tortoiseshell

Grassfur: black tortoiseshell mackerel tabby

Branchleap: black tabby point

Leafcurl: blue tortoiseshell point with white

(The tabby patterns are pretty arbritary, i decided to make Whistlebreeze blotched and everyone else mackerel mostly just based on the vibes of the names (and because i want mackerel to be more common).)

Oatclaw and Feathertail

First litter: Whistlebreeze, Flutterfoot and Songleap

Second litter: Grassfur, Branchleap and Leafcurl

Bonus, because i know you like Stretchkit:

Flutterfoot's family: Appleshine, Rustlekit and Stretchkit
