My cat is about 13 years old, she's had a black nose her whole life. Now, the inner part of her nose is turning white. This is unusual because I have never seen this happen to her. Help.
Other members might have experience with this particular area, I have not, but you might, when you can, have a vet take a look to rule out a health problem.
Did this happen suddenly or slowly over time?
I kinda' just noticed it recently, she didn't have it.. say... like... a week ago.
Her name's Indago, pure-bred blu point siamese. She's 13 or so. She may also have cancer on her belly. It's killing me. >< She doesn't seem to be in pain... I can barely think about it. The thought that goes through my head is maybe the whiting of the nose is a sign of... something bad. Like a foreshadow. D: She's had the lumps for a while, but the nose only happened recently.
I don't know if there is anyone on here with experience with something like this or not. Most of our kitties have black noses. Our oldest is 7 years old. This hasn't happened to any of ours. If it did, we'd head directly to a vet.
Because many members are international or work, responses can take a day or two.
I did google it, and found this - it applies to Siamese cats though, and it seems it is something that would happen every winter, not just start after 13 years. http://www.justanswer.com/questions/...ning-white-she
Oh - your kitty is siamese! And if you suspect she has cancer on her belly, I'm not sure why you haven't already been to a vet! Please go while you may be able to do something about it!
