I took my black cat to be spayed and they shaved a small patch on her paw for the drip. The fur grew back white! Anyone else had this happen? She looks quite cute though with her white stripe, we call her corporal though her real name is storm.

Yes the same thing happened to my cat I asked the vet about it and the Vet said it happened to her Black cat as well. Sorry but with Baby she always had that small white patch and I saw it once again with another cat ans when I asked the lady who owned the Black cat if it happened when she had an IV for spaying and the lady said yes. the black fur never grows back.

this is definitely conceivable. White cats are literally not albino- they could be able to have markings. now and again if an animal has been below pressure or injured in a particular section it would want to completely replace the coloration of the fur in that section- as an get mutually, a dogs that breaks this is leg might want to have a patch of diverse coloration on this is leg. It doesn't ensue each and every of the time, notwithstanding it would want to ensue.

I have never heard of this happening and then I don't have a black cat. You have a good sense of humor about it for sure.
My fourteen year old Kinsey has developed white fur on one side of his body (he is an orange tabby). Usually aging cats will get grey around their muzzles so I don't know either why he has developed this change in color fur pattern.

I've seem something similar happen to people who have had to have a portion of their head shaved for surgical reasons. The trauma of the initial shaving must interfere with coloration process of that patch of hair. Enjoy your cutie, she sounds like a very special fur baby. I have four spoiled cats and one spoiled Pom, and I think they are just beautiful and wonderful, just like my kids and grandkids. Have a good day!

It happens to many animals (and people) if they have trauma that would cause a scar. It damages the hair folicles (not enough to kill them) causing the hair to grow back white. I have a dog with a white patch on her head where she had a bad cut. It also happens on horses a lot, too.

I don't know about cats but the same thing happend to my brother when he was a kid except it was hair from his head.
It may just be a thing that cat's do if they lose alot of fur from one spot, or it could've been stress.
I suggest you google it.

I was spayed! But it just made me hornier! There is something to that. It's because my sperm is released back into my bloodstream and Testosterone is running rampant inside there. Then after making several jaunts all throughout the bloodstream, it is finally released as waste. I hope this answers your question about Vasectomies.
