He he he!! I thought I was going insane, till I went to the CFA Website. Over the last few months I had noticed Mochas fur changing color! At first I thought she was dirty, but upon closer examination noticed Dark Fur growing in certain areas. Mocha has Dark fur appearing across her shulderblades, and along her side. I had no Idea that Ragdolls changed color as they grew older. Very Interesting!!

in this pic you can see the darker coloring on her side, going towards her stomache.

I wish I had a camera so I could post some newer pics. But hopefully soon!:D

The same thing happened with Skye. She's a Siamese, but she's darkened up as she grew older. I also read color changes depend on climate.

She's such a pretty kitty :).

I know that the siamese breed will get darker as they get older. My Pearl was a cream color when she was very little and now she's more of a coco color and has dark black points. Her cream color is now buried undernearth so I'll sometimes see it if her fur is parted.:)

I didn't realize that Ragdolls did that.. Learn something new every day!

I knew Siamese changes but had no idea Ragdolls did.
