Their genetic tests

The laboratory’s full reports, exactly as it issues them

Bijou’s DNA results

49 genetic diseases: 0 at risk, 0 carrier
Blood type A/A
No recessive colour gene: no chocolate, no dilute, no cinnamon
Two copies of non-agouti: Bijou is not tabby; any tabby in the litter will come from Brontë

Brontë’s DNA results

49 genetic diseases: 0 at risk, 0 carrier
Blood type A/A
Chocolate carrier and dilute carrier
A single copy of non-agouti: Brontë is tabby and passes it on to about one kitten in two

See the full report ↗

Side by side, the two reports are easy to read. Bijou and Brontë are clear of all 49 diseases tested, including Ragdoll HCM and PKD: their kittens cannot inherit any of these mutations. Both are blood type A/A: no kitten can be type B, and neonatal isoerythrolysis is out of reach for this pair. An echocardiogram will complete each parent’s screening before the litter.

Wisdom Panel reports, from the Finnish laboratory Genoscoper, which also runs MyCatDNA. The details are on our Health page.

The possible coat patterns

What the two parents’ genetics allow us to expect

Colour

Seal point Ragdoll, dark brown mask and ears, blue eyes — Seal

Seal only

Bijou carries neither chocolate nor dilute: no kitten will be chocolate, blue or lilac. About one in two will carry chocolate, and one in two will carry dilute, without it showing.

The colours of the Ragdoll →

Tabby

About one kitten in two

Brontë passes on agouti half the time, Bijou never does. A tabby (lynx) kitten has a striped mask, pale “spectacles” around the eyes and a ringed tail.

Brontë, our seal tabby →

Pattern

Seal bicolour Ragdoll, white V on the mask — Bicolour

Seal mitted Ragdoll, white socks — Mitted

Bicolour or mitted

Bijou and Brontë are both bicolour, and Brontë’s sire, Zooko, is mitted. Every kitten will have white; how it is spread becomes clear over the first weeks.

Sex

Male

Female

Males and females

An even chance for each kitten. The number of kittens and the split will only be known at birth.

That makes eight possible combinations, each as a male or a female:

Seal bicolour
Seal tabby bicolour
Seal mitted
Seal tabby mitted

From kitten to adult

Royaume d’Élégance Bijou as a kitten, nestled in his basket with his ball, big blue eyes — **Bijou**, as a kitten and at eight months. An inverted-V mask, white chest, belly and four white legs; the seal darkens with age.

Royaume d’Élégance Bijou at eight months, young seal bicolour Ragdoll male held in arms, white ruff and blue gaze — **Bijou**, as a kitten and at eight months. An inverted-V mask, white chest, belly and four white legs; the seal darkens with age.

Brontë at a few weeks old, facing the camera, big blue eyes — **Brontë**, as a kitten and as a young female. The same white areas, with tabby stripes on the mask, ears and tail.

Echo de Narcisse Brontë sitting at the foot of her cat tree, full silhouette and developing ruff — **Brontë**, as a kitten and as a young female. The same white areas, with tabby stripes on the mask, ears and tail.

Seal mitted

Image to come

White mittens on the front paws, boots on the hind legs, a white chin and a white stripe along the belly; the mask and legs darken with age.

Seal tabby mitted

Image to come

The same white mittens and boots as the mitted, with the tabby stripes on the mask, ears and tail.

Ragdoll kittens are born almost white: colour appears in the first weeks and keeps developing for two to three years.
