ragdoll kittens are born white in color. From a few days to a week you can
see seal and blue colors and the kittens' pattern. Lilacs and
chocolates may take 3-4 weeks to determine their color. At 12 weeks,
its color will be easily
distinguished, Ragdolls mature slowly and in about two years
will obtain their full coat color. This means the color of your
kitten will continue to darken over time.
