It depends somewhat on lineages--what cats are behind yours and the red tabby's. But I can give you this for certain:
female kits: Torbie.
male kits: Brown tabby. -
I don't know what those colours of Tigerstar's relatives would be though. However, to be a red hereslf, she needs two parents who carry red, meaning her father had to be some form of a red, cream, or a white covering up either of those. Her mother could've been any of those or a tortie or torbie.

^Goldenflower was a red tabby.
Tigerstar's father was described as a "reddish brown tabby".
-
I was wondering though, since the Tigerstar crew are called "dark brown tabbies", then wouldn't they be chocolate tabbies?
-
Actually, Goldenflower was described as having a "pale ginger coat."
-
Ginger is red.
And red has to be tabby. :P
-
True. XD

Okay guys I'll put my hand up here - the Erins? Know very little about cat colours, and indeed several cats in the series are impossible colours. And as for genetics these only ever match up in the series by coincidence, so saying a cat has the same genetics as someone from the books... is typically not following real life guidelines :P
-
*laughs* Almost ANY colour combination can produce brown tabby :P
-
ohh sorry I suck a this -
It's fine, it's just brown tabby pops up all over the place so you could make the parents a whole range of colours.
-
It says in the book; Tigerclaw- big dark brown tabby tom with unusually long front claws.
Goldenflower-pale ginger coat.I'm getting this info from the first book; "Warriors Into The Wild."
-
They might also know squat about claws as well apparently--though I don't know the exact wordage so won't say for sure. Longer claws, unless they're hanging out of their sheaths and getting nice and dull and broken, require larger paws to contain them. so this means that if Tigerstar had longer claws than normal he also had to have larger paws.
since the mother cat in this case is a brown tabby and you want a brown tabby kit, you've already got it made pretty much. :P For a tom anyway. To get a brown tabby female, stay away from orange or cream mates for this female.
