Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! For a kitten Noushmc's age the gums should be a light pink and the tongue should be pink (darker shade than the gums). If the gums are white that is an emergency and indicates a severe anemia. I hope this helps and have a great day!
