The Mysterious Blue-Grey Eyes of Kitten Babies?!
March 04,2025

Did you know? All kittens are born with blue eyes! 👀✨
Why Are Kittens' Eyes Blue at Birth?
In reality, this isn’t a true eye color—it’s just an effect of light refraction!
-
When kittens are born, their melanocytes (pigment cells) haven’t started working yet.
-
This makes their eyes appear blue-grey, giving them a dreamy and mysterious look.
-
At this stage, their vision is still blurry, and they see the world in a hazy way.
When Do Their Eyes Change Color?
Around 7 weeks old, melanin production begins, and their eyes will gradually change to their final color, such as green, yellow, amber, or deep brown.
