| Maybe something is not quite "right" in his diet. Take him to the
Vet's to make sure that there is nothing seriously wrong.
Hair, fur, fingernails (and probably whiskers!) are all a form of
protein-- sometimes taking vitamin E helps...
(I don't think cat's are too different from humans in their dietary
needs...)

| 3939.2 | related problem? | BTOVT::MUNROE_R | I set my feet upon the rock | Fri Aug 24 1990 14:46 | 11 |
| I think my kitten (3 mo.) has a related problem.
She's a black medium-hair and lately over the last week her fur is
turning more and more greyish white. I can't really describe it except
in certain light she looks like she's getting really old. I feed her
Iams, and canned kitten food. She eats and drinks normally and plays
fine. The fur looks more and more frizzy and light grey every day.
Does anyone out there in cat-note-land know what this might be?

| 3939.3 | 3 mo-old kitten= fur transition? | GWYNED::JPORTER | | Fri Aug 24 1990 15:09 | 10 |
| Kittens are like babies-- their baby-hair (fur) falls out and their
adult fur starts to grow in its place -- maybe this is what both of you
are experiencing with your kittens(?)
If their behavior is normal it is probably nothing serious. You should
wait a while to see what happens with the "new" fur that is growing in.
(I am still trying to find a home for AXEL my 3yr old, neutered
male. I have already placed the 1 yr old female -- THANK GOD!)

| I'm pretty sure my Willy lost a lot of whiskers in his begining. I
remember wondering if they would grow back & they have.
