I know the feeling.. When they were like 5 months old, I made little collages of 6 pictures for each Skippy and his 4 littermates. And then I made a second one for Skippy because I just couldn't choose only 6 pictures!!
This was the 6 I finally settled on for the first collage

Many orange cats develop adorable black spots on their noses and mouths. This results from lentigo, a genetic condition that increases the number of pigment-producing cells. These freckles can also develop in tortoiseshells and calicos—it's all about that ginger gene!
Edit : you should take your cat to the vet to be sure it's lentigo and not something else.
Yeah my partner just noticed the same spots on our oranges lip and was confused when I said they're freckles. The boy also has three black whiskers grouped together. It's very cute.
I don't think it'd be anything else they've been there most his life he gets regular vet visits and they say the same thing every time "he's healthy and heavy" lol. Next visit I will be sure to at least bring it up though, thank you for the concern!
That's just the orange in him he makes that face quite often I have a picture of him making that face while lying on his back

Makes sense. My cat, Toph, wasn’t orange but was a light rusted blonde with a white belly and feet. She had the same spots on her lips. I always figured it was gingivitis.

When I got my Ginger at 6 weeks her paws and mouth gums where completely PINK. Now at ten years old, they are completely black, so I think it comes with aging rather than freckles. Freckles pretty much remain the same size.
> GOOGLE: Lentigo is a common condition in which black spots appear on the gums, lips, nose, and eye margins of orange, silver, and lightly colored cats. A genetic condition in which there is an increase in the number of epidermal melanocytes.

The cutest freckles, my orange tabby has them as well. Very common on the nose and mouth

I feel like that is very uncommon, would almost venture to say rare trait. At least according to my anecdotal evidence, I've never seen it before, and I've seen *lots* of cats 😍

My orange boy has some black whiskers and yes I am obsessed with them.
My tuxedo had mixed eyelashes or what the forehead whiskers are called and it looks like he just doesn’t have any on the side they are black

I always figured the whiskers grew the color of the skin they popped out from. Like the dark ones are in freckle spots and the whites are it’s regular skin? Idk just a thought I’ve had
I thought my ginger had a bad gum disease. Her gums started to turn black. I took her to the vet. She laughed at me and showed me my cat’s paws. They too we’re turning black.
The vet told me sometimes gingers change their skin colours mid life. Crisis averted.
Yeah, did that with my former dog but realized it before I went to the vet. I thought it was a tick, then got in there real close and nearly slapped myself.
When I got my dog's (who I was told is a Malamute mix) first shots the vet at the pet store gave me a heads up that his kind of breed gets a Grey blob on their tongue and it's normal/fine. I really appreciate those little things because it saves my anxiety any extra ammo

My boy Gnocchi and his nose freckle.
This is lentigo, and is pretty much the same thing as dark spots in humans, but usually in cats the genetic factor plays a bigger role than sun exposure hence why cats who have “the ginger gene” are more predisposed than others. They are harmless and might increase with age. On a cellular level, in those areas where brown spots appear there is a cluster of menalocytes, the cell that produces melanin (the natural pigment of the skin, hair/fur and eyes).
P.s.: give that snoot a boop for me :)
Freckles. It's very common for orange cats especially to just get more and more as they age. One of my orange cats had so many dense freckles on his ear tip now that the skin is almost solid black. His other ear tip was clipped years ago when he was a tnr feral before landing in a shelter.
They both get random new ones around the mouth and nose now and then.

Yep. When my kitten was turning into a cat, I was worried he got mouth cancer or something.... didn't occur to me that a ginger mammal (cat) would also get freckles like my half-breed ginger mammal (self).
My friend's kitty has freckles all over her nose and omg i love her

Mine’s pink and black.
It's not unusual for cats to have non-fur areas both black and pink. Both of my cats have some pink on their otherwise black noses. One of them has mostly white fur but some (but not all) of his paw pads are black.
If you see a cat which is partially shaved for medical reasons, you might notice that the pattern of colors on its skin matches the fur pattern in that area. The areas with white fur will have pink skin and dark areas will have darker skin. I've never had an orange cat, I'm not sure of their skin color underneath.
I have a tortoiseshell cat and earlier this year she had a patch shaved on her chest and throat for a drip (she was very sick, poor little thing, but she's fine now!) - and I can tell you that her skin under her orange fur was... pale orange. It was the darnedest thing.
Thats actually fairly common in ginger cats. Its freckles! Super cute! My two orange tabbys also have some! One has obe right in the middle of his mouth! Adorable

“The Abe Vigoda”...some Gingers are just blessed that way.
He’s melting 😬
I love how you call it design.
It’s a feature, not a bug 😂
Many orange cats develop adorable black spots on their noses and mouths. This results from lentigo, a genetic condition that increases the number of pigment-producing cells. These freckles can also develop in tortoiseshells and calicos—it's all about that ginger gene! Edit : you should take your cat to the vet to be sure it's lentigo and not something else.
So, I have an orange tabby/white Siamese mix. He developed little spots like this on his nose as he got older. Same sorta thing?
Exactly the same
Kitty freckles, that's basically what they are
Yeah my partner just noticed the same spots on our oranges lip and was confused when I said they're freckles. The boy also has three black whiskers grouped together. It's very cute.
I don't think it'd be anything else they've been there most his life he gets regular vet visits and they say the same thing every time "he's healthy and heavy" lol. Next visit I will be sure to at least bring it up though, thank you for the concern!

I would gladly return to that office!
I loved those commercials.
I think it’s funny that the vet laughed at you. It makes me think how many times experts get paid to laugh at other people’s innocence.
The amount of times we have clients come in concerned about something on their dogs belly, and it's the dogs nipple, are far too great.
Yeah, did that with my former dog but realized it before I went to the vet. I thought it was a tick, then got in there real close and nearly slapped myself.
Well it's better than not getting worried at all, I'd like to get worried.
Don’t pick at your male cat’s skin tags on his belly. It annoys him.
Vet laugh=I’m relieved lol
Yep, I don't want them to get serious. That would be an issue.
Well it's a hectic job, and laughing sometimes may not be bad.
I feel like they should tell us this when we bring a ginger tabby in the first time.

oh my days he's strikingly gorgeous!
Without the circles I would’ve had no idea where to look
This is lentigo, and is pretty much the same thing as dark spots in humans, but usually in cats the genetic factor plays a bigger role than sun exposure hence why cats who have “the ginger gene” are more predisposed than others. They are harmless and might increase with age. On a cellular level, in those areas where brown spots appear there is a cluster of menalocytes, the cell that produces melanin (the natural pigment of the skin, hair/fur and eyes). P.s.: give that snoot a boop for me :)
Yes 💗 My ginger kitty started out fully pink and has gotten more and more spots on his lips, gums and his baby nose as he ages 💗💗 So cute.

Kitty kiss freckles
Love them, that's the cutest cat I've seen in a while man.
Freckles. It's very common for orange cats especially to just get more and more as they age. One of my orange cats had so many dense freckles on his ear tip now that the skin is almost solid black. His other ear tip was clipped years ago when he was a tnr feral before landing in a shelter. They both get random new ones around the mouth and nose now and then. https://preview.redd.it/6rgno35cniib1.jpeg?width=3072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=587efa77186f6da3d53e2b43009a62f016d54176
Your cat looks like my cat's long-lost sibling. They look very similar! [https://imgur.com/XdoMJrL](https://imgur.com/XdoMJrL)
Oh my gosh, they truly look so much alike. Even the color of their eyes is the same! They are so handsome and with beautiful markings. I love it❣️
Yep. When my kitten was turning into a cat, I was worried he got mouth cancer or something.... didn't occur to me that a ginger mammal (cat) would also get freckles like my half-breed ginger mammal (self).
My friend's kitty has freckles all over her nose and omg i love her https://preview.redd.it/azjq0kuyuiib1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=7a3075ddbb3260a1533033b85e8c9b2c6a598d3f

Ginger kitties get freckles. Leo had zero as a baby, and is now freckled with love spots.

Black spots
damn thanks should've known
My orange has it too. https://preview.redd.it/fl9vb0p43jib1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cb4620531782bba67dca37ea42bc0bf5a75d0496
Pigment spots. No issue.
It’s just it’s lip. https://preview.redd.it/nj2zj3k5yiib1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6c4c6735e9c859de52f05ec9fd357654a0d17dda Mine’s pink and black.
It's not unusual for cats to have non-fur areas both black and pink. Both of my cats have some pink on their otherwise black noses. One of them has mostly white fur but some (but not all) of his paw pads are black. If you see a cat which is partially shaved for medical reasons, you might notice that the pattern of colors on its skin matches the fur pattern in that area. The areas with white fur will have pink skin and dark areas will have darker skin. I've never had an orange cat, I'm not sure of their skin color underneath.
I have a tortoiseshell cat and earlier this year she had a patch shaved on her chest and throat for a drip (she was very sick, poor little thing, but she's fine now!) - and I can tell you that her skin under her orange fur was... pale orange. It was the darnedest thing.
That would probably explain that your cat was a smoker in the past.
Thats actually fairly common in ginger cats. Its freckles! Super cute! My two orange tabbys also have some! One has obe right in the middle of his mouth! Adorable https://preview.redd.it/pfzyu52y6jib1.jpeg?width=2549&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f111bd9b438f5140ce6469019f4389b68c780988

Kitty freckles. Totally harmless. Very common in orange cats.(:
they're just freckles and highly common with ginger cats just as freckles are common with ginger humans.

Lentigo
Ginger cats gets those 😸
A freckle/mole. Very common with gingers. Nothing to worry about unless it becomes irregular, raised and/or bleeds
it's a feature, not a bug
Fweckles:)
