The word charming has always been purrfect to describe Silhouette.  Her color is charming, her temperament..., everything about her is just soft and lovely, happy and peaceful.  She is not a super outgoing Turkish Angora, tending to have more of her mother's gentle spirit about her.  She loves to play and frolic with the crew - I can't imagine a BeauBeau baby that wouldn't!  But she is not a gregarious girl and I think she'll remain a home body and not be a show kitty.  I'm just not the type to drag an unwilling subject out to show them off if they don't enjoy it, and I really do think that Silhouette is suited to keep things in order for us at home.  The only real reason I would want to show her off is because she is so close to being a shaded silver patched female that in most lights she really is.  And these shaded colors really must be seen to be appreciated.  Unfortunately, the camera exaggerates even the most minor barring, bringing out markings that can't even be seen by the naked eye.  So just know that the bars you see in her more recent pictures below just aren't there.  The fact that she looks like a blue silver and not the black silver
that she is speaks for how bright her silver is... The only reason I even hesitate to say that she isn't shaded is because I think she has a bit too much color at the tips of her hairs which makes her just a bit too dark overall to be a good shaded.  But these colors can take years to mature and she might get there yet!  One way or the other, she's sure to have gorgeous kittens and be a super mom just the way her mother Sprint was.  And what a wonderful legacy to Sprint she is with those gorgeous green eyes - they still glow red as in the photo below left which was taken when she was eight months old!  The three pictures above were taken when Silhouette was seven weeks old and those below at about eight months...
