Thread: Hello everybody and a question please!

Hi All, just joined here as I got my first Coonlet last weekend. She's a great character, love her to bits already and she's got some guts having already stood her ground against my 47kg loopy German Shep...

However, I have a quick question for those more experienced with this lovely breed than I.... she's a blue smoke but has a rusty cast to her, which is quite brown on her back, although she's still palegrey/white underneath. The breeder assured me that it's just her kitten coat, but am I being led down a path or not? I don't think it really matters now, but I am thinking about breeding her and want to plan early, however if she is going to stay 'rusty' it may be more difficult to get her to breed true.

What do people think?
