At Devine Paws, all of our kittens coat colors are specified using the Pawpeds EMS codes. This is the universal code in which breeders and cat associations use to explain a cats breed, color and coat patterns.
For quick access on what your kittens color is based on the EMS code, please review the following tables.
Please note that only colors which can be produced in Siberian Forest Cats are listed. For the full list of colors, see Pawpeds EMS codes website.
Cat Coat Color | Cat Coat Pattern |
a = Blue d = Red e = Cream f = Black tortie g = Blue tortie n = Black s = Silver, smoke u = Sunshine w = White x = Indicates an unrecognized colour y = Golden | 01 = with white, van (5/6 of the cat white) 02 = with white, harlequin (1/2 to 2/3 of the cat white) 03 = with white, bicolour (1/3 to 1/2 of the cat white) 04 = with white, mitted 05 = with white, less than mitted 09 = Unspecified amount of white 11 = Shaded 21 = Unspecified tabby pattern 22 = Classic (blotched) tabby 23 = Mackerel tabby 24 = Spotted tabby 25 = Ticked tabby 33 = Pointed (Siamese) |
Almost any combination can be created. For example, if you see a kitten that is a d 24, that means it a red coat color with a spotted tabby coat pattern
Color codes can get quite complex, depending on what the kitten inherited from their parents.
For example, this is an a 23 04. This means she is a blue mackerel tabby with mitts.
