Point coloration

A cat with black point coloration

Points are specific areas of an animal coat that are colored differently from the main body colorations. Typical point coloration is represented by a pale body color and relatively darker extremities, such as face, ears, feet, tail, and scrotum.[1] It is most recognizable in the coloration of Siamese cats, but colored points can be found in many mammal species and some points are lighter than the main body color.
