Okay! So judging by the design and your notes, this would be a fawn calbie (fawn-based tortoiseshell mackerel tabby). Therefore, here is what you need in the genetic string:

• AA (agouti) - This is correct. in order to be both fawn/gray and tabby, this cat must have at least one dominant A gene.
• b1b1 (cinnamon) - This is missing from your string. The fawn color is a dilution of cinnamon, therefore the cat's black-based gene must show that it is cinnamon.
• dd (dilute cinnamon/fawn) - This is missing from your string. The fawn color is a dilution of cinnamon, therefore the cat's dilution gene must show that it is dilute.
• ll (longhair) - This is correct. The default lineart is longhaired.
• McMc (mackerel tabby) - This is correct but irrelevant. Explanation will be in another note.
• Oo (tortoiseshell female) - This is missing from your string. In order to be considered a tortoiseshell, the red gene must be partially shown.
• spsp (not spotted tabby) - This is correct, presuming that the black/gray spots are the gray showing through the white.
• ww (no white) --> wsws (>50% white) - This is incorrect and must be changed. The cat's design clearly shows that it is more than 50% white.

So your final genetic string should be: AA / b1b1 / dd / ll / McMc / Oo / spsp / ww!
