The silver Maine Coon is one of the most desired exotic colors produced. Remember from the previous blog post, EMS codes demystified, the silver coloration is also referred to as “smoke.”
The silver undercoat may be tricky to see in kittens as it is more noticeable as they age. To make sure you are in fact getting a silver kitten, work with a trusted breeder who can educate you on what colors to expect from a full grown cat.
