A Mage class ability: higher Stimulation makes kittens more likely to take their ability from the parent with class abilities (table below).

Passing it to kittens

Stimulation	Inherits an ability	This one, parent knows 1	…knows 2	…knows 4	Picks the class parent
0	20%	10.9%	5.5%	2.7%	50%
10	45%	25.2%	12.8%	6.5%	55%
30	95%	52%	27%	13.7%	65%

Chance a kitten gets this exact ability when one parent knows it among 1, 2 or 4 abilities and the other parent doesn't, counting both inheritance rolls. Same rule for every ability; details.
