Traits

Lykoi, aka the “werewolf” gene, is a partially hairless gene that causes cats to go through molts and have bald patches. Their fur is typically roan (with possible white spotting) in color, but for New Paths, a Lykoi cat can present as roan or their base colors. This is a recessive trait, so a cat with (Lyly) would be only a carrier of the gene. Only presents with both genes (lyly).

Lykoi is allowed to present as variations of Donskoy cats/Furred Points as well. As long as the cat has between 20-80% baldness, it is acceptable as Lykoi. For more than 80% baldness, see Hairless.
