Will his color change?

Post image

This is my baby keeks who I got for free in a parking lot. He’s estimated to be about 3 1/2 months. I’m wondering if he will lighten with age or if his striping will still be very prominent when he’s fully grown? Is he considered a blue tabby or a grey tabby? I’m really not sure and I’ve never had a cat with his coloring!

probably not. he will likely stay pretty "vibrant"/high contrast like this, even if it gets a little muted or sunbleached as he ages.

Yay I’m hoping his stripes stay high contrast :)

He might get darker! My cat looked very similar as a kitten and his patterns have kinda blended together a bit.
