I've noticed that Sophie is getting a lot darker as she gets older. I took these first pictures of Sophie, her brother Albert and another stray kitten, Jiro, this time last year.
As you can see apart from her mask, paws and tail she was almost white.
These were taken in January.
Recovering with her buddy Heidi after they had both been spayed
Squinting in the sunlight.
These are some photos I took today. As you can see she is much darker.
I wonder if she is going to keep getting darker as she gets older? She's about 18 months old now. Is it because the cold weather is coming? Do you think her summer coat will be paler? Maybe it's from all the sunbathing, she loves to sleep in the sun.
But then so does 'Bert and he is still as white as ever.
I've been describing her as "Chocolate and Cream" but maybe there is a better term for her colour?
Thanks for reading and for any information.
