Cat coat color inheritance is a polygenic inheritance. Most orange cats are male, and the probability of a calico cat is only one in a thousand. When an orange cat is crossed with a native cat, the male cat will be an orange cat and the female will be a calico cat. The breeding color chart of Siamese cats is as follows: seal, chocolate, blue, lavender, chocolate.
If a pure red male cat mates with a tortoiseshell (red + black) female cat, if the resulting baby is a male If the baby is a cat, its color will be either black or red; if the baby is a female cat, it will be red or tortoiseshell (red + black). It should be mentioned here that the situation we are talking about is relatively ideal and does not take into account other genes that can control coat color and pattern.
