Re: Piebaldism/Piebald Mutation

People with vitiligo are not born with it. I do have vitiligo and I started to get white spots when I was around four years old. meanwhile I'm almost completely 'white'/pale. If I'm removing my make up my lashes are white and if I wouldn't dye my hair it probably would be white too.
Thank you for sharing and the explanation.

Re: Piebaldism/Piebald Mutation

My cat is piebald, she's a Ragdoll and it's part of the breed standard. Ragdolls can have "points"; areas of the body darker than others. When mixed with white, some Ragdolls are considered bi-colour. Aris is a seal brown bi-colour patterned Raggie. ♡♡♡
She resembles a raccoon. :)

Re: Piebaldism/Piebald Mutation

How is it distinguished from vitiligo? I guess vitiligo is an autoimmune disease. Those animals are really cute, and I think unpigmented patches are beautiful. It's a shame people are bullied about it. Nice post.
I have a cat with vitiligo.
She'd be et black other wise.. has one blonde fur/pink padded paw, and some blonde fur on her neck/head. and she is mental.. like not crazy cat mental.. but like fucked up mental... chews her paw, scratches her neck for no reason, aggressive etc. touch her back even lightly and she freaks out.. I've been working with her though.

Your kitty is crazy for other reasons than vitiligo..
