Question of the Day:
How can you tell what the color of eyes a kitten will have?
Answer:
All kittens are born with blue eyes. If the parents have copper eyes the eyes will start to change at about 4 weeks old. And by 6 weeks old it is clear. If the parents have blue eyes the kittens eye will remain blue.
The trick is to tell when the parents have different eye colors....This happens mostly with white cats. They can have blue eyes, copper eyes, odd eyes copper and blue or green and blue. The way to tell is take a picture of the kitten in sunlight...The eyes that have "red eye" will remain blue...the ones that don't will turn another color either green or copper. Green is a stage between copper and blue, and I do know that the eye will not have the "red eye" if it is changing from blue. Sometimes it takes a year for the color to fully change. That is why on the registration papers the breeder will only specify blue, copper or odd eye.
This is why I do not fix the "red eye" on the kitten pictures.
