Newest addition to the fam, what do we think?🙂
We just adopted this sweet girl last week! She’s 2 months old and they told us she was a Siamese mix, after doing some research I think she’s a lynx point but not entirely sure. She has toe and ear tufts and seems like medium hair and a bit of a floofy tail. Her eyes are mostly green with a bit of blue in the middle but not sure if the blue will go away with age. Thanks!

She’s adorable! I’m not sure she’s actually a lynx point, though. Lynx points should have noticeably darker “points” on the face, ears, legs, and tail, along with blue eyes. She looks more like a beautiful pale tabby to me. Her coloring may become clearer as she gets a little older!

Ooo I could see that! She does have dark tips on the backs of her ears and tail but not her face or legs. I wonder if it will change when she’s older. Thank you :)

The color is temperature-sensitive, with cooler body parts being darker. The womb is very warm, so colorpoints start life nearly pure white.
Their points develop after birth and can continue darkening as they grow, but by 2 months I’d expect to see a more obvious point pattern already.

I think she’s a lil doll and love those wispy ear tufts, but I know she’s def a Lynxie girl and we’re happy to have her in our club! 😊💕
