RE: are "Shades" completely random?
Cats can hide traits for generations, heck they can hide traits all the way back to the starter cats.

When it comes to what traits pass to an offspring: Each parent goes down the list of traits and makes the choice to pass the shown or hidden for each. The offspring gathers all the traits each parent has passed and will always show which ever of the 2 choices is dominate and hide the other choice.
So what has happened here with the mother cat is her father passed it's shown natural shade and her mother passed her hidden flash shade.
Thus making her show Natural shade and hide Flash shade.

I do hope that makes sense to you.

Natural is the most dominate shade.

Come grab a cat at Kitten Haven!
