So my neighbors cat just had her babies and one of the babies looks just like one of my cats....

I have two solid grey male cats that are about 3 years old. I had them both neutered two years ago. There are no other cats around that look like mine at all.

 

Now the neighbor cat has babies that look like mine?

 

How could that be???

You should ask your cats what they have been doing. Smiley Happy You should do it seperatly, one will rat out the other.

Any Siamese males in the neighborhood? Sometimes half-Siamese cats come out all grey. Soon as they meow, the secret is out. Smiley Wink

Well, and of course, another possibility is that whoever was your cats' daddy is still in business, so to speak!

good to see your neighbor cares about the ever-growing pet population.  It's the females that need neutering.  SAD!!!!

Well, don't know about the neighbor, but we had a cat who had kittens because she turned up already pregnant. And of course, she was spayed after the kittens were weaned.

Siamese mixes are often black. I've never heard of the gray thing but that's cool. Could make sense since the charcoal gray (blue) is the dliuted form of black. Lot's of black cats have those gray/blue kittens. What I can say for sure is those Meezers have big mouths. I've got one that completely runs my house. Half the time she sounds like she's part Lamb. 

 

One litter of kittens can have all kitties that look NOTHING like one another. There doens't need to be a Daddy around to make the colors from the current litter, the genetics of cat colors is pretty crazy. I had a chart handy a while back but it was another computer.
