A rare cat with Vitiligo...she is beautiful
#1
Vitiligo starts when the animal is young and gradually kills off the melanocytes. The skin in that area turns pink and the hair turns white.
Other than that, the animal's health is unaffected. This particular black  cat is beautiful. The white patches make her more beautiful and very unique.

I knew that humans get vitiligo, but I had no idea that cats and dogs can get it.
I wonder if there are other animals that can develop the condition.
If it is a condition that develops, I wonder how much more of the cat will turn white.
I hope they keep posting pictures of her. It would be fun to see how she looks.
