Well yea, i have cats, but things are a bit complicated there as there is many colours in the play. 

From what i understand and read, male kittens inherit colours from their mother, and mother can have 3,4 color patterns, while female kittens combination of both, males usually has only 2, rarely 3 colour patterns. 

So its a bit hard to determine if kittens have different fathers, especially if mother has many colours on her and if she mates with 2,3 colour male, thats a lot of colours. 

I dont know if they did any reaserch on this, how often female cat can have litter from different males.

And if its the same in lions, where im quite sure no research was done on this. Reply
