In summary: I screamed like a little girl and the animal control guy threw the bag over the cat's head and squeezed. The cat went limp in the bag. It was one of the scariest things I've ever done, but I made it out unscathed. So I'm not exactly scared of cats, but I am definitely cautios about getting scratched by them. In summary, Moonbear was telling the story of how her cat Ember is doing, and how she is going through the terrible twos now. She also mentions how Ember is teaching her how to throw around kitty litter, and how the stray cat that had kittens a few

The runt at 4 days old, part of a litter of seven:
I named her Neutrino. She grew up fine with a little help. Sometimes I'd box off her nursing spot so one of her larger siblings didn't shove her aside.

I think you are oversimplifying the genetics of coat color. It's sex linked for one thing so, for example, orange cats are more likely to be males. Torties and calicos are almost always female. But you can get a combination of colors/patterns in any case.
On top of that litters can be the product of more than one father.
