So I have this wonderful 4-month-old kitten that has very fluffy fur. And I have read that some cats lose their fur from the younger days and it might change so I wanna know if there is a way to know whether my kitten will keep its long fluffy fur?

It's all genetics, so there's no way to know in the same way you can't look at a 5-year-old boy and know if he's going to go bald at 50. Just love your kitten regardless.
