Question
I took in a stray cat that appears to have some Siamese characteristics.  One of her kittens is light gray, with slightly darker ears (it is only 2 weeks old). Do you think it will stay gray, possibly with darker ears and tail or turn black when it is older?  

Answer
Hi Kati,
No, it won't turn grey or black.  It will probably have the coloring of a seal point Siamese. The "points" ,which are the nose, ears, tail and feet will be a dark color, while the rest of the body will be slightly lighter.

God Bless,
Becky
