Texann's 3 White Peterbald with Different Coat Types

Texann had 3 white Peterbald kittens that show some of the different coat types that this breed can have.  Since they are all the same color and from the same litter, it's easier to make comparisons without the distracting color or age difference interference.

The kitten on the far right as you look at the photo is a blue eyed straight coat Peterbald about 12 weeks old. This kitten does not carry the Peterbald gene and if mated to another straight coat Peterbald, would only produce straight coat kittens.  This kitten will never lose her coat and her coat will always stay this same consistency. 

If the Peterbald lines being used are pure for only Oriental Shorthair outcrosses, then this kitten would end up looking similar to a pet quality Oriental Shorthair.  However, most Peterbald have so many different breeds of cats as well as domestic shorthair in their pedigree from when the breed was first begun, that many straight coats may not be that close in texture and type to the Oriental Shorthair. 

The Peterbald kitten in the middle is an odd eyed brush coat.  He was born with a heavy wirey brush coat but has since lost enough fur to be a thiner short brush where the skin beneath is showing.  He may grow more fur or he may lose the fur he has now.  You never know exactly what coat a brush coat kitten will have as an adult until they are two and often three years of age. 

The peterbald kitten on the left as you look at the photo was born without fur.  However, since his birth, he's grown some fur points.  Fur points are soft velvety coat on head and legs/feet.  The tail could also have velvety fur, brush fur or no fur in that situation.  Then he has some slight soft downy hairs on his body if you look at him up close.

In this second picture, the brush coat is far left, straight coat is middle, and fur point is on the right.  It's much easier to see the differences in person than it is in a picture.  The pinkish color on the body is the skin tone showing through.  Often if a kitten is born hairless, the skin will be pink even though the kitten's fur would have been some other color.  The fur color may not be the same as the skin color.

If they move all around like this can you tell which one is which when they get through?

 

 

 

 

Brush Coat Red White Peterbald - Dimitri

Dimitri is a 7 month old brush coat red /white Peterbald kitten.  He's laid back and calm, with a relaxed personality.  He's very affectionate, loving and gentle.  He gets along well with all of my cats with his easy going ways.  He loves to sleep with you, to sit in your lap, and to be petted.  He loves to be by your side as much as possible. He probably weighs about 6 pounds right now so he may weigh 8 pounds as an adult.
