My thoughts exactly! One of my favorite coat colors. Also looks a little underfed to my untrained eye. The face looks too skinny. I see kittens a decent amount so that's just a hunch, I'm not a vet.

i think it’s fine! some kittens are just a bit lanky/scrawny lookin. i actually am a vet tech at a cat specific vets office :) there’s always a chance it’s underfed but you can’t always tell from a picture like this
