AOC Silver Spotted BSH Kitten 1st & BOB Davison’s S Sutillian Silver Purkiss, F, Black Silver, 5.12.06 A sweet little girl of 5 months today, but already with a nicely rounded head and lovely British expression present. Small to medium width between tall and flared ears, she just needs to grow into them! Excellent facial width complementing her well set round eyes which are currently a mixture of olive / hazel green in tone. Broad nose, showing a small bump when viewed in profile, level bite, firm chin, just showing a slight teething pinch at the moment. A well-developed and padded chunky little body for her age, showing nice depth with good weight to balance, standing on slightly fine boned legs with round paws, well ringed tail of correct length with a rounded tip. Her pattern shows lovely clear facial markings, two incomplete necklaces, the leg bars are present and clear, but I would prefer more of them, she also has spots extending down the legs, but not quite reaching her feet. Rear a right foot is rather sooty and unclear at present. The body shows a mixture of both arrow head shaped and round spots, with just a minimal amount of linkage present along the spine line. Her coat as yet is typically quite kitten soft and rather long, with reasonable density: all features very much attributable to her baby coat. As yet her silver could be brighter to afford a better contrast with her black, which also needs to deepen further in density. A very pleasing kitten in terms of development for her age that is absolutely fine for where she is at. Super sweet temperament, she has much promise of the future.
