Show us your Freckled noses! Is it only orangies that have them?

So, I got to thinking - I can't remember any other colour of cats with freckles or pepper-nose, so did a little research --

From http://www.cat-world.com.au/Glossary...tigo%20Simplex


From http://www.vetlearn.com/images/SA%20...t%20lentigo%22


Soo... its a completely harmless (and cute!) pigmentation -- or freckles -- just like a lot of other red-heads get!

And it even has its' own 'medical' or clinical term -- Lentigo Simplex in Orange Cats

... and more pepper-nose pictures of Hobbes

How cool! Thanks for finding this info. See the 2 non-orangies who have them, have SOME orange in them too! So it wasn't my imagination!

Great pictures everyone. Sunny has some freckles on his lips and nose and my Sky has big freckles on his nose.


Sunny's freckles on his nose a very light so they're hard to see but he has blacks ones on his lips.


Sky when he was quite fluffy. He has two large freckles on his nose.

Corkscrew doesn't have and nose freckles, but he does have lip freckles.
