Not quite.
Your two pedigrees prove that it sits between Choc Tip and Latte


Mom is a starter, while Dad shows Blonde streaked and hides Chocolate Tipped
The kitten shows Monochrome, which are new, and therefore can't be hidden in Dad
This proves that Monochrome whiskers are dominant to Chocolate Tipped and possibly to Blonde Streaked .


In your next pedigree, Mom is the same starter, who now is known to hide Monochrome.
Dad shows latte and may hide something more recessive.
The kitten shows Latte, which cannot come from Mom.

This proves that Monochrome is recessive to Latte.

Miss Pretty's kitten's parents and grandparents are so young that they may very well hide Chocolate tipped, so we need to pull the hidden whisker colour here to place the whiskers.



Mom shows Flame, and hides either Flame or Chocolate Tipped whiskers
Dad is a starter from the newest collection.
The kitten shows Monochrome.

This indicates that Monochrome is dominant to Flame, but this cannot be proven unless the hidden is pulled.

Monochrome must also be tested against Butterscotch for final placement.

I wonder if Ultra Nerdy has popped the hid on his. If it's flame, then it's placed. Looks like he might have flame hid but it needs to be verified by popping

Don't forget Butterscotch, Kayla!

Don't tell anyone, but I did too. I had to edit my post to add it to the necessary tests.

This was the second breeding of the Monochrome Whisker kitty. I didn't get the whisker again but I got a new eye And another special size.

So you haven't opened your first box?

I don't understand which box you are asking about. The first box by that father was the Monochrome Whisker, this was the second box by him where I tried with Cream and did not get the Monochrome again.

Just Born Today is the first Monochrome kitten's first box.

That one, yes!
The reason why I ask is that we need to pull the hidden whisker from that cat (or another one with a flame parent) to confirm that Monochrome is dominant to Flame.

You might want to rename Monochrome Galactic, btw. The Ody Galactic eyes are lost in that box.

Yes, it is lost. But I am naming the kittens by what I have found in the starter so I know at first glance what starter line it's from. It's just for my quick reference. Thanks.
