Will kitten keep his grey eyes?

[cptrayes]

I have a kitten who is at least 12 weeks old, probably a bit older than that, who has the most soulful and beautiful grey eyes. I've never seen a grey eyed cat before.

He's a blackish/greyish tabby with brown paw pads.

Will they stay grey or should I resign myself to them going green some time??

My black and white cat had eyes like that whilst she was young. They slowly changed to green

My silver alien cat had beautiful matching silver eyes when he was a kitten. They gradually went more green but have kept a silvery tinge. It's a bit of a shame they have to change as they look so beautiful and unusual (although I think they are beautiful whatever colour they are even though he's boss eyed and looks like he's looking at the end if his nose most of the time).
