I noticed about two days ago this brown (?) ish spot on my cats nose bridge and I can’t quite figure out if this is something normal or if I should take her to the vet? I just took her last Tuesday for an allergic reaction that made her bottom lip swell up and since that went away I thought I’d just monitor this one to see what happens.

This is what it looks like today and then this is what she looked like before this

I’m not 100% sure if I just became hyper aware of it because I just took her to the vet but any insight would help a lot! She’s about 2-3 years old for reference!!

Are sunspots normal? I looked it up but her skin seems to be fine / it isn’t bleeding or raised or anything and her behavior is generally as it usually is.

Does she go outside, or spend time in a window? I'm asking because that area is white, and susceptible to skin cancer. Not saying at all that that's what it is, but it's a possibility. See this thread: Brown raised spot on nose!?

I would have it looked at by a Vet, just to be safe.

I don't know how about cats, but my dog often gets such spots from the sun, and after a while they disappear
