How can you tell for sure what a kitty is hiding?

[anna Acanthus]

To try make it more simple to understand, the first golden rule is that any given trait will be hiding either the same or a more recessive.
A more dominant can never be hiding behind a more recessive.
Any given trait can only be hiding one other, and no more

I suggest that you open the pedigree of one of your kitties on one page and Saga's trait docs on another, you'll soon be able to work it all out for yourself.

i do realise that theres a whatsit load of seemingly indigestable info about breeding but once you get your mind around this basic concept, all the rest will fall into place.
