The diagrams show the ideal placings of the gloving lines, but as the standard notes, faultlessly gloved cats are a rarity. In these two photos, we see two very nicely show marked girls. The bluepoint on the left, has a small rise in the white of her left front glove, which shows from the side.
On the rear legs, you'll notice that because the white of the glove extends around and up the hock, you generally do see it from the side view. Occasionally you will find cats with perfectly placed rear gloves, who have no, or very little in the way of laces. On the other hand, you can have a cat with gloves right at the bend of the foot, whose laces are pervect inverted "V"s.

PENALIZE: white that does not run across the front paws in an even line. Persian or Siamese type head. Delicate bone structure. White shading on stomach and chest. Lack of laces on one or both back gloves. White beyond the metacarpal (dew) pad. (The metacarpal pad is the highest up little paw pad, located in the middle of the back of the front paw, above the third joint and just below the wrist bones).

DISQUALIFY: lack of white gloves on any paw. Kinked or abnormal tail. Crossed eyes. Incorrect number of toes. Areas of pure white in points, if not connected to the gloves and part of or an extension of the gloves. Paw pads are part of the gloves. Areas of white connected to the other areas of white by paw pads (of any color) are not cause for disqualification. Discrete areas of point color in the gloves, if not connected to point color of legs (exception, paw pads). White on back legs beyond the hock.
