A horse of a different colour...
so.. my little one, Cat the Curious, has been changing colour these past couple of days.. Just like the horse on Wizard of Oz in Oz .. she has been going from her black typical colour to a pale then yellowish colour and then back to black. Sometimes she will stay a pale yellowish color for a while before going back to her darker colour. And it's not always all of her. Mainly it's her body and then occasionally her head and then sometimes all of her.
Is this normal? She seems happy, is eating, swimming, anchoring .. but slowly flashing from black to pale to yellowish to black - not all the time just from time to time. I was told she was a yellow kuda when we got her.. so I'm guessing that is where the yellow colour comes from but is it normal to switch between colors so often? |
