Bambino coat colors and patterns

No major registry publishes a color standard, because none recognizes the breed. REFR's own standard, the only registry text there is, says the Bambino may come in all colors or patterns, and the parent Sphynx standards it borrows from exclude nothing either. As with the Sphynx, color on a hairless cat is read on skin pigment rather than a coat, which is why two of the commonest looks are pink-skinned white and grey.
