Traits
Amber (Basic)
Category: Color
One of three Gemstone genes, Amber is comparable to the Amber gene in Norwegian Forest Cats, and appears as a drastic pelt change with age. Over time, the Amber (eaea) gene will begin to turn black pigment an amber (yellow) color starting from the back and working its way down.
A Solid Black cat will turn Amber but may retain black striping, as well as a black nose leather. A Black Tabby will turn into an Amber Tabby, similar to a Yellow Tabby but richer. A Black/Red tortoiseshell will become Amber/Red.
This is a recessive gene, so a cat with (Eea) would be only a carrier of the gene.
