What has Mr Ted done to his nose?

Ted Cat has returned home today with this black mark on his nose. I thought it was dirt/oil, it's not

Its getting darker to, he's pure white and always has something on his coat as he loves being outside.

He wasn't fussed on me touching it to see if it wiped off!

He's due his vaccinations next week so will get vet to check if it's still there.

This is him enjoying his favourite crisps! 😉

Have you tried using a make up wipe to see if it budges? He’s gorgeous btw

Lentigo?

That is odd.

My MrCat is also a snowball. He likes to go under cars, I'm sure, because he often has black or grey marks on his fur and his ears. They don't come off easily! I got some no-rinse foam cleanser from a petshop, and that helps to clean him. But using it is a two-person job of strategy and secrecy. If he notices me using the pump or his fur getting wet from the foam - he's off!

If that mark on lovely Mr Ted's nose was an injury, I'm sure he would let you know when you tried to touch it .

We used to have a white cat who frequently came home with black marks from sitting under cars!
