What is an inbred kitten?

In: Domestic Cat Breeds, Cat Behavior [Edit categories]

Answer:

Inbred means that it was created totally within the family line, not with an outside gene like normal breeding. For example, if a female cat mates with its father, all the kittens will be inbred, because the father is also the mother cat's father. The kittens will also be deformed because of a gene mixup.
