when a kittens eyes change from blue to their permanent color, is there usually a visual difference? like, can we as humans see them change? My kitten eyes were blue but one day it looked like it had blood in his one eye and it was cloudy, then the next day it was yellow/brown (his permanent color). He seemed fine I thought he may have just scratched it (this was weeks ago) so I'm just wondering. Thanks.

At 2 months of age, eye color changes are still possible in your kitten, so it wouldn't be a guarantee the eye color won't vary/change over the next few months. Usually eye color can change up to 6 months of age.
