What is a Mink?
According to The cat Fancier’s Association, Inc. (www.cfainc.org/breeds/standards/devon.html) MINK PATTERN: body with some colour. Contrast between body colour and points ranging from subtle to distinct in kittens and young cats. Contrast minimal in older cats, particularly in darker colours, tabbies and torties. Points: mask, ears, legs, tail and feet with even colour. Nose leather and paw pads: appropriate to coat colour. The mink pattern may be combined with ANY other pattern (except pointed) and ANY colours, e.g. natural mink, blue mink, champagne mink, platinum mink, natural tabby mink, blue-cream, tortie mink and platinum-smoke mink with white (shown in Bi-Colour Class).
