Peterbald coat colors and patterns
All colors and patterns are accepted on every coat class. The breed's identity lives in the coat SPECTRUM, not the palette, which is why no color pages exist for it. The five classes are the content: naked (fully bald), chamois (a suede feel), flock (a peach-fuzz down), brush (wiry, curly-feeling coat), and straight (a normal coat with Peterbald papers). All come from one dominant gene whose identity, honestly, science has not yet published.
