    I managed to catch her napping on the cat tree with my supermacro function. I had to make the photo smaller to download here. I hope you can see the little black spots. The one on the right is more promninent than the left.

    I think I'd just wait to see if the spots change size and/or color. If so, then a vet visit would be in order. When I first rescued Coco Puff, he had a similar spot on his ear. I took him in to be neutered and the vet asked if I wanted the spot removed but since it would be an additional surgery and I was having a number of cats altered, it would've been too expensive so I refused. That was 5 1/2 years ago and now I can't even find the spot.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    It looks like it is sitting on top of a small bump. Do you feel a bump there?

    Could be just a blackhead...maybe have it checked out quickly at the vet.

    Okay, that looks a little different than Buddy's freckles. His are flat, just a pigmentation thing. If it is a bump you may want to keep an eye on it or have it checked.

    When I saw this thread, I thought LENTIGO, the black spots that orange cats get. This is very different....

    Is that what they call it? Lentigo? I didn't know the name. My orange boy has them. They are his beauty marks.

    With the snow and stuff we're getting I think I'll make a vet appointment for Saturday, after the weather is better.

    Thanks all for your comments.
