A cat with a two-colored face has become the father of kittens, each with a different color

A two-colored male cat can father kittens with a split coat color

The owner of Narina the cat has just shared that he has given birth to two more kittens. The special thing here is that both of Narina's offspring have inherited the coat color from their father's two-colored face.

Each kitten has the same coat color as their father's face - one black, and the other gray.

Narina's two kittens were named Phoenix and Prada. While younger brother Phoenix has gray fur, older sister Prada has black fur, except for a small white patch on her chin, just like their father.

It can be said that Phoenix and Prada perfectly represent the two halves of their father's face. Unfortunately, neither of them inherited their father's blue eyes, but instead have sparkling brown eyes.

Narina was born on March 28th, 2017, and caused a sensation with her distinctive two-tone gray and black fur markings on her face.

Narina is known to live in the UK with her owner, Stephanie Jiminez. Narina was born on March 28, 2017, and caused quite a stir at the time due to her unique gray and black face with a well-parted coat in an exact 50/50 ratio.

Cat Nalina's two-color face still did not answer. 

At first, it was believed that Narina, the British shorthair cat, had a gray and black face similar to a chimera cat. This is a cat whose cells contain two types of DNA, formed from the fusion of two embryos.)However, when DNA testing was performed, it turned out that Narina was not a chimera cat.

The cat's owner, Stephanie Jimenez, told the Daily Mail: "A geneticist tested Narina and found only one piece of DNA. Still a mystery. My pet cat also has beautiful blue eyes, very beautiful and rare in all black cats. Usually, blue eyes are seen in white cats."

Therefore, why Narina has a special 2-color face is still unanswered. Moreover, Narnia continues to "produce" other generations of offspring who are both adorable and inherit her beauty.
