I recently noticed that my cat has now darkened quite a bit and I was wondering if it is normal and if he will prob continue to darken until he matures? Below is pictures of when I got him (3months?), 5/6 months, and ~9 months. Thanks :)

It is not uncommon for colors to change slightly between their kitten and adult coats. Darkening and more defined coat patterns being the more common changes.

He is a lovely little one

In second and third pic as kitten we do see he is clearly a point "siamese mix".

Now he carries tabby too, and point tabbies often get the tabby coloration over the whole body.
In practice they darken up.

His eyes arent no good blue (?).

If so it may be so he is a combo of siamese and burmese point.

Such kittens darken up early and eyes often not very blue. Sometimes even not bluish at all - the burmese point isnt connected with blueveyes.

Its a guess Im not entirely sure. Would be easier to have too his pics as even younger kitten.

Some few points have greenish eyes. Esp some lines of ragdolls are known for it.

But if he is this siamese burmese point combo as I suspect, his eyes may have almost any color.
