Hi everyone! My 4.5 month shaded silver dollface kitten, Olivia, is developing cloudy yellow eyes. Have you ever seen this before? Could she still develop green eyes? I thought all shaded silvers would have either green or blue-green eyes. Olivia's dad has solid L'Dearheart lines and her mother is also have L'Dearheart. Thanks for your input!🐾

Agree a photo would help, for show purposes eye colour needs to be green, if just a pet it won’t matter if the eyes are a fault.

Hi Neely, Thank you! I wish I could attach a photo of Olivia, but my phone storage is full and a friend is trying to help me upload them to my computer but we are having difficulties both with the phone and the computer. If it is helpful, her eyes are a light yellow that sometimes look tan and have absolutely no green in them.

Yes, a silver can have other than green or blue green eyes if other eye colors are in the pedigree. My first stud was actually a pewter ( a silver with copper eyes and not show quality due to this). This is Spencer( in need of serious grooming) that I mentioned. He is out of a shaded silver and cream breeding. His kittens have had copper, green and hazel eyes. The next 2 are 2 of his kittens.

Thank you, Lynda -- your photos are so helpful, too! Olivia's eyes look similar to Spencer's silver child, (though in sunlight her eyes look a bit like spanish olives).
