I hope this is the right section. But On June 5th Simba became a daddy :) The Mama is Nala Our Manx they had 5 babies 1 Manx that has no tail at all - Mommy has a little "bunny tail" as I call it, But that baby has a birth defect :( I am pretty sure its from mama having 5 babies and he/she got in a position and couldn't stretch out and his ligaments and tendons got tight, and in turn he now has both back feet turned backwards - its the equivalent to human club foot (that's how I explained it to my daughter the "Grandma" of the babies, because she herself was born with club foot,

there are 3 grey babies all 3 have some peach color on them 1 having more than the others, one is very dark almost black but has I guess its called orange in it, you can see some faint markings but he/she is so dark colored it's hard to see, one is marked so neat! I don't know for sure if its considered Marbled, I tried to get good pics but couldn't get the little booger sit still (and I thought taking pics of Parrots was a pain LOL)

He's either a really good daddy, or a dead beat daddy LOL I've never had indoor cats be parents so not sure how the males are supposed to be but he'll go peek in and then go on his merry way, he prefers to be outside like normal sitting on his stump or his rocking horse ( he has taken claim to a bouncy horse my boyfriend brought over for when I'm watching his grand babies)

Okay here are the pics :) - Be Prepared to say "aww" a ton We do! :D

Since I have a good bit, I'm just going to post the link to my photobucket page they are on, But I will post one(or a couple) of the one I am curious as to what the "color" would be called.

Are both parents health tested? hcm scanned pkdef and I don't know the health tests for manx? Is this a registered outcross program?

And just what I do but Id never ever let a un-neuter male around my kittens, they aren't neutered you don't know what they might do or how they might re-act, I just wont chance it. He goes outside not neutered?

Looks like 3 blue/grey & 2 classic ginger/brown classic tabbies, they wont be called marbles as they arent bengals, mum is a tortie so Im guessing the blues maybe blue torties, but again maybe to early to tell.

The kitten you want advice on looks like a full coloured brown classic tabby, is it a boy or a girl?

Very pretty litter of "mutt" kittens as you seem to prefer the term.

Not really sure why you have posted here regarding colour unless you are thinking of selling them as "Bengal cross" to make more money. Simba has no papers and I shouldn't think your manx has either so if you are actually going to be honest with people there should be no mention of Bengal with regard to the kittens.

Feel free to continue to "do your own thing" and "not be like other people" but please don't rip people off by misdescribing the kittens.

Any plans on getting them neutered soon or are they the basis of your breeding program?

Sorry if you are offended by these comments but you come across as just another backyard breeder with no concern for the welfare of your cats.

atvchick95 - no one is going to support purposely cross breeding two unknown heritage cats together on here. Its just the way it is.

Not that it will change your mind because you have obviously thought or think this is a good idea but why did you breed them? There was no point or purpose other than to have kittens! There are THOuSaNDs of shelters that have kittens all day every day! This is non sense IMO and yes it is very BYBish!!! The only way you can claim not to be a BYB is to have EVERY kitten in this litter spayed or neutered and then do the same to your cats! It's unfair to them if you don't!
