11 week old tabby kitten changing colour?

hallie_love Sep 04, 2005 05:54 PM

i'm the proud new owner of a beautiful new tabby-coloured kitten named hallie.

i got her when she was 9 weeks old, and she had an orange coloured spot on her back and the tip of her tail. (i liked the spots, it made her unique. ) you can see her tail in the picture i attached, as well.

the thing is, my boyfriend and i have been noticing more and more orange on her as the weeks have gone by. is this normal? will she completely change her colour? not that it matters, she's the same amazing cat either way, we're just curious to know if this has happened to anyone else, or if anyone has even heard of it happening? haha... thanks!

Kittens do sometimes change color a little. By that I mean that the colors they have may lighten or darken as they grow. Looks like she may just have a touch of calico in her. I like that little tip on her tail too. Very cute!!!
