A kitten investigating a fallen leaf
The cat sits with its tail curled and its nose close to the leaf. A ground line and a few small tufts of grass place the encounter outdoors, while the large maple leaf forms the focus of the kitten’s attention.
Why fallen leaves attract curious cats
A dry leaf can carry scents from soil, trees, rain, and other animals, giving a cat plenty of information to examine. It may also rustle or slide when touched, which can trigger a cat’s instinct to watch and pounce. Maple leaves change color when chlorophyll breaks down as daylight decreases and the weather cools.
Natural colors of cats and maple leaves

- Kitten’s eyes: blue in very young kittens, with green, gold, amber, or copper common later
- Fall maple leaf: yellow, orange, red, brown, or a blend of these shades
- Grass: fresh green during active growth, becoming straw-colored or brown when dry
