Norwegian Forest Cats eat standard healthy cat food. Leaving fresh food and water out for them throughout the day works well. SIGN UP FOR THECATSITE'S EMAIL UPDATES > Trimming the nails of an indoor Norwegian Forest Cat is acceptable, but declawing is a no-go, especially for outdoor cats. They need their claws for climbing, hunting, and protection.
8,991. Purraise. 4. Location. Rising Sun, Indiana. As some of you know, John's dad's cat lives with John and I. We pretty much think of her as our own now. Anyway, she is solid grey (or blue, or whatever the proper term is). I've noticed the past few months that the fur on her sides are turning to a rusty brown color.
Copper-colored eyes represent the darkest hue found in cats. It's an unusual blend of light brown with shades of red and orange, occasionally speckled with yellow, green, or more orange. The color is rare, standing out as distinct from orange yet equally unique. It's all attributed to the melanin content.
Don't think it's anything extraordinary. Lots of black (and black variants like yours) have coats that "rust" or change to a brownish color. Usually, it's seasonal and related to sun exposure, but I suppose it can occur under other conditions. That's what it looks like has happened with your kitty. Feb 24, 2022.

The lack of thicker fur allows all their skin's wrinkles, lumps, and bumps to show. Bald cats come in the same variety of cat colors and patterns. They can be black, white, blue, calico, bi-colors, tabby, or even color-pointed. The difference is that the overall pink skin tone is mixed into the cat's "coat" color, creating a very unique look.
2. No, it's not. The grey/black is just tabby. They are both just the "black" color, it's just a matter of him having the tabby gene. Without the tabby gene, he would be black. There's basically only three colors: black, red, white. Then there are genes that flip these colors to lighter shades or make tabby striping.
I personally like purple on black or grey cats, just offsets the color nicely. Black and white since you already have contrasting coat colors going on anything is good. A nice black and white pattern would blend in but I'd do a hot pink personally for the flare of it. If you picked our Beastie Bands I'd do:
28,369. Location. South Dakota. missymotus said: Pictures would help but it sounds like a blue tortie tabby (usually with white) I can't speak for the OP's cat, but that's not how I would describe my mom's kitty. She's a plain brown tabby, but with red blotches very well mixed into her fur. Not defined patches.
The rusty colour on his back might change as he ages too. "Kittens are born black, but often develop rusty or coppery coats, white or silver hairs, or a lighter ruff and/or undercoat until full adult coat appears at 12-18 months." - Cat Fanciers Association.
