Fur changing color?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

Not really a medical issue but I'm unsure where to post this...

 

Can cats fur change color? Particularly tuxedos? I noticed a very small patch of white on Monet,s eyelid that wasn't there before. At least I'm sure it wasn't there!

 

 

Can their color or color pattern change?

My partner's grey and white cat has gained more grey as he's aged, and her all black cat who previously had a single white whisker is now flecked with white hairs scattered throughout her fur.  My fluffy tuxedo cat goes from black to brownish red at times, especially when he's been in the sun.  If the skin on the eyelid looks normal otherwise, I wouldn't worry about the color change.  The gene for white spotting may have been activated in that part of the body.
