Color change in cat´s fur

Hi,
I have a 7 months old cat, with black and white fur. He looks like he´s wearing a tuxedo =). Lately I have noticed that his fur changes in color, it seems that the black is becoming a deep, dark reddish brown along his back. He´s an otherwise healthy, playful and happy cat, so I am not really worried, just curious to hear if anyone has experienced this. Could this be because he´s still growing and changing or should I worry and take him to the vet ?
Thanks in advance, have a nice day.

Hi Tine,
I'm not sure if this is relevant anymore, but it sounds quite normal what your kitten has gone through. Some cats change colour slightly as they grow and develop more of their colouring details later on.
