Hi guys, i've had my cat for 1 and half years now and his nose and mouth often turn pale and blue. Is it something to be concerned about? The color always goes back to pink red

I would have the vet check it out. Blue gums and a nose is not normal. Is there something that happens that causes your cat to turn blue? Sneezing, coughing, etc? Ort does it happen randomly for no apparent reason?

I would be concerned that he is having a heart or breathing issue. Maybe I'm totally off base but in infants blue lips often signifies a breathing or heart problem and lack of oxygen. Yes definitely take him to the vet

I would be very concerned as others have said here, it sounds like a lack of Oxygen.  A vet visit is in order asap.
