Why is my cat changing colour?Hi All One of my cat's, Miw, is a quite dark tortoiseshell cat, mostly black and orange coat, and white on her chin and belly. It's come to my attention recently that she's getting QUITE alot of white fur on her back and tops of her legs now! Is she going prematurely white??????? She is, of course, still gorgeous and will indeed age gracefully.......naturally.......but she'sonly 4 years old and I didn't expect she would be getting white hairs already! Is this normal? Thanks Tina P.S. Here's her picture; http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/n...obbs70/Miw.jpg

Hi Tina, I can't offer any advice on changing coat colours I'm afraid! It shouldn't be harmful for her though  I did just want to say that Miw is gorgeous!! She looks incredibly similar to my parents first cat, Baggins, who was mother of my first cat. Such a lovely girl |

It is perfectly normal for her to get white hairs growing through her tortie patches especially as she is a tortie and white. Leila my tortie gets white in her coat even my black, Cory, gets white growing through. Kisses my red and white bi-colour has white growing through her red patches. So don't worry. |
