Smoke coloured cat turning white

[Littletiger01]

My 15 yr old smoke coloured cat is turning white (his ears, nose and the tip of his tail). Has anyone ever seen this before?

The picture looks similar to the karpati mutation. Do you know what he looked like when he was younger?

He was all black (smoke) except a small patch of white on his chest.

Wow, that's cool! Like reverse point.

Yes I think it could be a Karpati mutation. Thank you! It looks to be quite rare.

Have you brought him to the vet recently for a full senior check up? I would just in case it's health related.

You should go to a vet but he looks so adorable!

Yes he just had blood work done and everything was fine.
