sealpoint
Dark-tipped feline variety
Sealpoint describes a color pattern in cats, particularly Siamese and related breeds, where the body is pale cream or fawn while the "points"—ears, face, paws, and tail—are dark brown.
The contrast creates a distinctive masked appearance: a sealpoint Siamese with striking blue eyes.
The name comes from the points' resemblance to seal fur.
