Do black kitten noses stay black?

Wow Brigitte! They are all gorgeous!! I guess I don't know what you mean by poofy nose leather is? Is that the bridge of the nose?

No, the nose leather is the pink or black part at the end of the nose where there is no hair... poofy is when it is expansive and not just a tiny triangle but covers the nose up and over the curve from the tip of the nose up over to the beginning of that nose bridge...
Mar28-06-face.jpg see how the pink extends up the nose bridge?

I have the same obsession with the black noses, lol, and I finally got my black nosed kitten a week and a half ago! I'm pretty sure his nose will stay black since he's a smoke.... well I hope so anyways! Not sure if his is considered 'puffy' or not- what do you guys think? Here are some shots of him and that cute little nose... <3

Smokes and Mels are "non-agouti" genetically, which is the "lack of pattern"...hence their noses will stay black...so yes your smoke baby will keep his black nose :)
