The sperms and the eggs within the parents might get different genes from each other because two parents have two (or more) genes for each trait and give one each and the child ends up with two- one from each parent. The eggs/sperms could get a different of the genes from either parent.

In addition often times a female will be impregnated by two different males within the same batch of eggs, so all of the cubs may not have the same father.
