I have a lovely black/brown marbled girl aged 16 months. I recently discovered she has pink spots on some of her paw-pads. I do not know any reason for this, and both her parents has normal dark brown/black colored paws.

Does anyone know if this is inheritable and whether its viewed as a "fault". I checked the TICA-standard, but could not find anything about it.

I was planning to breed from her soon, and YES she is HCM-screened normal and PK-def tested

Thanks for your response!

I'm only a TICA-member. I think Fife has some color-descriptions of the paw-pads, and that at least they were strict on allowed colors, but I could not find their std anywhere. I sell 99 percent of kittens as pets not breeders, but I keep some at times so... at least they're not green...
