White breeds of cats and male cats with photographs and names: photos, character description
White cats are very beautiful and elegant. According to the standards, white breeds are not allowed any spots or impurities. This color can only be obtained by crossing purebred breeds that have not been mixed.
White coat color in cats can be due to various reasons:
- due to a specific gene associated with deafness (seen in cats with green or blue eyes)
- due to albinism, when animals have no coat pigmentation, and their eyes and skin have a pinkish tint
- due to the presence of the gene that determines white spotting. Sometimes there are a lot of such white spots, they merge together, and the cat turns white
Many breeds can have a white coat:
- Persian
- Devon Rex
- Maine Coons
- British

Features of color
The formation of color is a complex biochemical process that begins in the embryonic stage of embryonic development. The color of a future kitten's fur depends on the interaction of dozens of genes.
- Chocolate color is one of the forms of black, for which the B gene (black) is responsible. In combination bb it gives the color range of a brown monochrome, capable of taking on different tones.
- Next, the D gene enters the process. In the dominant form, it blocks any lightening, but in the recessive version, dd opens the way for a change in the color of the main pigment.
- The bb (brown) allele and the dominant D gene are chocolate color. When the combination bb+dd occurs, the coat lightens and turns purple.
- Black always dominates brown.
- Within colors there are also divisions into tones. Dark chocolate is formed by the b allele, and the lighter cinnamon (cinnamon) received the b index
- Option b partially suppresses b1, making color fixing a very difficult task. Therefore, kittens change color over time, and only in an adult animal can one accurately determine the color of the coat.
- In nature, cats have two coloring pigments - black eumelanin and red pheomelanin. But the first one has two additions - brown (dark chocolate) and cinnamon (cinnamon color). The color saturation of the hair is affected by the shape of the dye capsules and the density of their arrangement in each hair.
Experienced breeders always accurately determine what colors cats will have in their litter. Brown color is considered rare and complex, but in some cases it predictably appears when breeding chocolate cats.
This is interesting! Once upon a time, felinologists tried to get brown offspring from red (ginger) cats. But the experiments had to be stopped due to unstable results. Only some varieties of black cats give birth to chocolate babies.

How to choose a kitten
In the brown cat breed groups, there is a little secret to establishing the color. The fur of kittens after birth cannot serve as a guide to their actual appearance. Most often it fades (by 6 months of age) and only then the main shade becomes clear.
In some cases it is lightened, in others it is darkened. Sometimes the birth color appears gray, but by the time they reach sexual maturity it completely changes to brown or chocolate.
Even if the kitten was purchased from a nursery with a good reputation, this will not give full confidence in the color stability. During its life, a cat will change its basic tone several times, and by old age it will probably become darker and more saturated.

Where did the British come from?
The first ancestors from which the marbled Britons descended were brought to the territory of the British Isles from Rome and Egypt. The cats were distinguished by their powerful physique and high hunting instinct. The locals liked this because the cats began to destroy rodents that were spoiling the harvest. People and animals got along well, as cats had a proud disposition and unpretentiousness. For several centuries no one studied the breed. In 1889, an exhibition was held in London where the British white cat was presented. Real interest arose only in the 20-30s of the twentieth century, when, according to a program specially created by felinologists, they began crossing animals and breeding the breed. In 1980, the breed was recognized by the International Federation of Cat Fanciers. The marbled cat was bred through selection.
