EDIT: I understand how to get them now! But is there a guide to be able to read them?

This is my kitty ^

Original Post:


So I received a cat and it had this in it's bio:


Genetics unrevealed.
[ C ] [ NN ] [ SL ] [ BOFD4 ] [ YYMS ] [ NN3C ] [ ?? ] [ ?? ]

> Incapable of producing Nulls.
> Capable of producing longhairs.
> Produces black Norths, orange Souths.
> Capable of producing diluted cats.
> Incapable of producing solid cats.
> Capable of producing non-white cats.
> Growth pattern unknown.


Is there a generator or reader or... something that spits out this info? I'd love to know the genetics of my kitties. The closest I've gotten is doing the beans sandbox with my albino to see who can also make albinos.

You can use a Family Tree to reveal your cats genetic string and decode it yourself, and there are other players that will gladly reveal your cats genes for you and tell you what it means hi

Yeah, it’s a special item! I think he lowest in the om is 420n, and it can be crafted by the scribe (8 black ink, 15 paper bark, 15 wildflowers)

Is there a guide somewhere for how to decode this?

There are lots of guides, under the guides in forums and also in the tutorials section.

That code means that your cat carries solid and no white I believe (I’m still kinda learning myself lol.)

Here and here are the best places to learn

The official guide is here. You just need to scroll down a bit to find the genetics section. There are also a lot of gentic guides in the guides section of the forums like this one. You can reverse engineer the gene string using it, so you don't need the family tree item.

As for your genetic string:
> Incapable of producing Nulls as it is a trade wind.
> Incapable of producing longhairs.
> Produces black Norths, orange Souths.
> Capable of producing diluted cats.
> Capable of producing solid cats.
> Capable of producing non-white cats.
> Growth pattern is AC (decreasing)

Edit: I didn't realize FireflyFrost said it before me lookright

@MadameTruffle @FireflyFrost thank you so much!

As for the "produces black Norths, orange Souths" would that mean if I bred her with a north, there would be a higher chance of a void? Or is it just random what type of wind the beans get?

I think it is just the random chance of the wind of the beans, but I'm not 100% sure. thonk

the way color genes are determined is that the left allele is passed down by the north parent and the right allele is passed down by the south parent. a trade wind can act as either of these (will be north with a south, south with a north, and random with another trade)
your not-cat can actually pass down either of their own alleles regardless of what wind they’re acting as, so depending on the second parent the beans could still be orange. if you want voids you could breed with a north or south not-cat that has BB alleles, that way beans will be guaranteed to be black range when north/south!

on how colors are expressed:
if a not-cat is north wind, their shown color is based on the left allele (i have several BO north winds produced from a north BB parent and a south OO parent. they’re all chocolate or black.)
a south wind uses the right allele and trade winds use both alleles (this is how tortoiseshell/watercolor is determined. torties have BO or OB, watercolors have BB or OO)

on what winds the beans will be:
it isn’t completely random and depends on the parents’ winds. there are three alleles (N for north, S for south, O for null). trades are NS/SN and can’t carry null. norths are NN/NO/ON, souths are SS/SO/OS; the O means they carry null and can produce null beans with another null carrier of the opposite wind.
your not-cat is SN and will always have a chance of trade beans. the second parent will determine the other winds you might be able to get. (with another trade, you can get NS/SN/NN/SS. with an NN north, NS/NN. with an SS south, NS/SS. with an NO/ON north, NS/ON/OS/NN. with a SO/OS south, NS/NO/SO/SS.)
wind alleles get passed down exactly like color alleles.

the 3 at the end of the color part of the gene string means your not-cat is color density 3. if you want voids, i’d suggest breeding with a not-cat with a 4 in that slot. density can be 1-4, with 1 as lightest (tan/apricot/silver/beige) and 4 as darkest (black/red/charcoal/buff)
beans can have any color density between the two parents’ numbers. a 2 and 4 can make 2, 3, or 4 for instance. this is also how it works for white level (though that goes 0-10)

sorry for the info dump, i hope it helps a bit. i’m open to questions! happy
an eevee whose coloration is split down the middle. his normal coloration is on the left and his shiny coloration is on the right. his eyes are light blue and his inner ears and tail bow are dark teal. the eevee has some more stylization in the form of low white present on his legs and mink-like point markings.
