One of our cats is a tabby, she came to us earlier in the year as a 9 months old, very underweight abused cat with emotional problems, she was very shabby looking with a dry brittle coat,very shabby looking.She would binge eat and throw up.
She lived upstairs in isolation for about three months but has very gradually ventured down, she now plays with my other cat and walks acrss the room where my Pekingese dogs are.
It took a while but she now has a glossy coat, is no longer timid,she is now spayed and is now eating normally, sits on knees etc, so we thought all was well but...................she has started to fade, she was quite striped, now only her points are tabby, the rest of her is a solid colour, she is very small and fine boned by the way.
Why would she fade, does anyone know, she is beginning to look very much like the Asian cats.
I am wondering if they asian cats stsrt striped and as they mature the stripes fade.
Weird.
