Whisker colors: cream, champagne, whiskey
Sometimes white or silver are the best options because you want a light colored whisker on a dark fur. But you know how we scream for recessive traits so these are some ideas for some more recessive light colored whisker colors in the cream to golden range going from lightest to darkest


cream
champagne
whiskey
brandy
gold

now if there is a reason not to have alcohol named whiskers (due to junior owners); maybe someone can suggest equivalent names that can reference the champagne, whiskey and brandy colors but aren't alcohol-derived. (I like those names because they have jazz and jazz color connotations for me).

I love your suggestion, and love the names. Shy

This sounds great to me, and I also like the names. SL is for adults (yes, I know there are a few teens around), so I wouldn't see a problem with alcohol-derived names.

You know, the more the merrier. And at a certain point in time, I have this hope that people will stop chasing the recessives so very much, and the market really will evolve into a place where people are showcasing the lovely unique combinations that they have so carefully bred.

Blue whiskers would be very nice. I'd also like to see purple whiskers and maybe pink ones.

I had thought about more 2 tone options in the past also so fully support that idea and love the other whisker colours suggested
