Here’s an old thread that I found: Cat's fur turning grey?

Reply 2 is very helpful; it is normal for kittens’ coats to change color as they mature into their adult coats. :)

Your kitty is beautiful and I'm curious...how does kitty look now? I rescued a tiny black kitten (9weeks old) Labor Day weekend. (I took in her sister who's all black 10 days earlier.) 3weeks ago I noticed her fur on her torso was starting to change to silver. Her torso is now very silver. She has a few silver hairs in her cheeks and forehead. She is starting to get a silvery tail but her head and legs are still black. She's absolutely stunning. Our vet has never seen fur like it. I'm wondering if she will stay this color or continue to change.

Looks like fever coat to me... I have seen fever coat show up at that age.
