I have noticed this color changing the frist time with my Donna, a grey cat. First the fur was shining red-brown in the sun only, the older she became the more you could see it. First I thought it is just because her mother Mietzi was a brown tiger but then I have asked the vet and he said, too it could be a diet problem but he believed it was Rufismus, a genetic defect that mostly appears with black cats but can also happen to other fur colors. Willi had the same fur color changing but not so much just like Paulinchen and Moritz's fur now changes as much as Donna's did. So I guess the vet's diagnosis was right because Donna, Willi, Paulinchen and Moritz descend from one cat, Mietzi.

Well, look at the next pic pf Moritz and his gray fur shining brown now. The first 10-12 years of his life there was no brown at all.

No, the neighbor cats are afraid of little Paulinchen. The main reason is the cornfield straight behind the house this summer. Paulinchen went into the cornfield and has slept there for hours. I couldn't find her and she didn't hear me calling her because she is deaf but she has to drink and eat every two or three hours day and night . To drink very much and often because of her illness and to eat so often because she cannot eat so much at once anymore because of her age and disease and of course she shouldn't lose much weight.
