My kitty-cat is pretty.

So, when we got Nick and Nora, Nick was basically grey and white. And he still mostly is, except, over the past year, some of his medium-grey is starting to get a little bit of an orange-russet tone. It's pretty subtle, but I think it's very becoming on him. (And, no, he's not rolling in something orange or something like that -- we have our cats professionally bathed every few months.)

Anyone else heard of this -- three-year-old cats having subtle color changes? It's pretty.

Sure. Aren't all the leaves changing now to hues of orange & red? Cat camouflage.

Somehow, I don't think that Nicky is losing his chlorophyll. First, he seems to photosynthesize just as much as he ever did -- it's obvious that cats photosynthesize, right? 'Cause of the sunbeam thing? Second, he eats just as many plants as he ever did, which is obviously where he gets the chlorophyll from.
