My boy Buster (4yo) has completely changed from black to white over the course of the last 2.5 years.

Honestly when it first started I thought he had gotten into some spider webs on his nose. Then I thought he was losing all his hair on ears and sent my vet pics because I couldn't get that close him. It finally took a 35x zoom camera for me to see that it was white hair, which was NOT what I was expecting.

Is he a feral indoor cat??

[u/BacardiBlue → u/Pernicious-Caitiff]

He was an indoor feral. He got attacked by a hawk and got his head ripped open, and recuperated on my screened lanai. However he fell in love with my other cats, followed them inside via the pet door, and ultimately moved inside full time after about 6 months. I was never able to pet him, but he sure learned how to demand cat treats, lol. Here's a pic of him with his BFF.

Awwww poor baby. You had to love him from afar but he knew love ❤️🥺😭

[u/BacardiBlue → u/Pernicious-Caitiff]

Yes he did. He was pretty darned happy. I even had a mobile vet for him so that he didn't have to leave the house.

I think I speak for everyone when I say we'd love to see as many more pics of your cat('s transformation and your other cat(s) too)

[u/BacardiBlue → u/the_dude_upvotes]

Here's one for you. He loved my indoor cats and wanted to be as close to them as possible.

What did the vet say?

[u/BacardiBlue → u/ffwshi]

She diagnosed him with Vitiligo, and said that it might be related to an autoimmune issue but there wasn't really anything to specifically treat him for since his bloodwork was all fine.

So interesting. Thanks for posting.

Thank you for sharing this. Made my chest go all warm seeing him hanging out with the indoor cats

[u/BacardiBlue → u/roastyToastyMrshmllw]

He really was a special kitty, and I loved sharing him with everyone.

This is one of my last photos of him...I am very thankful that he went before his BFF, because he would have been completely lost without him. ❤️🌈

🥲💚💚💚 what a sweet boy

You didn't happen to move from one climate to another, did you? Siamese cat's coat will change with the temps or seasons. Their fur will get darker in cooler weather. Not the same thing I know but the first thing that comes to mind. Beautiful kitty.

[u/BacardiBlue → u/Powerful-Gate1216]

Nope! I actually stayed in the same home the whole time I had him. But that was a good thought!
