The white fur is undercoat and that's the bit that is nearest the skin. It's very normal Smile

If you part her fur she is a whitey-grey colour underneath. It just looks funny coming out Laughing

Yes that's her undercoat all buns have them, Angora Jess's is a thick undercoat it's awful and so close to her skin, Dotty is looking like Molly at the moment as she has white fur coming out Smile

The poor little guy. I forgot how bad it was until I found this... Laughing

When I was at the vet yesterday Ted was moulting so badly his fur was flying all over the place. It ended up going in the vet's eye, and she had to go and take out her contact lenses and rinse them!

Whenever I handle Ted I end up inhaling so much of his fur - I'm sure I'm going to end up with a hairball in my lungs!

Rory is molting so much he now has a brown spot on top of his normally white tail. It just looks weird.
