Generally speaking, the overview would be:
Any fur, tail or eyes with the word GENESIS in it,
is NOT a countable trait.
The word 'Natural' for shade is NOT a countable trait.
A 'Curious' eye shape is NOT a countable trait.
A 'BIG' pupil is NOT a countable trait.
'Silver' as a whisker color is NOT a countable trait.
'Guitar' whisker shape is NOT a countable trait.
Count everything else.
For example your black ruskie,
Russian black fur, count it.
ody sorbet eyes, very sexeh, count it.
Curious AND big on the eyes, NOT countable traits.
If they were mysterious and small you could count them both.
Tail plush, count it.
Big boo boo ears, always nice, count it.
Shape is not a countable trait but may effect value,
some people love teacups, come people hate mega's.
That makes your black russian a 4 trait kitteh.
Its mom and dad threw their own traits together and
came up with this,
but we would need to see further up the pedigree to see what
the parents were hiding,
and thus what possibilities the kitten may hold in store.

Good luck with your new kitteh!
