“She was very playful and sometimes acted more like a dog than a cat,” Nicole told Love Meow.
Nine months after she got Elli, Nicole noticed a small white patch on Elli’s black coat.
Nicole thought nothing of it but then one patch turned to several and after a couple of months there were white patches all over her coat.
Nicole took her to the vet, hoping it was nothing serious, and was told Elli had a rare condition called Vitilgo.
Vitilgo is a condition that can affect humans as well as dogs and cats.
In animals it causes patches of fur to lose its pigment. There is no treatment for the condition but it doesn’t cause any discomfort to your pet.
Ellie wasn’t bothered by her color change and still remained as adorable as ever.
But as her coat changed, the patches started to resemble snowflakes and she made the most remarkable transformation.
Ellie is about to turn three and her adoring owner described her as looking like a “snow owl.”
“She is so cute and her fur continues to change every day,” Nicole told Love Meow.

I’ve never seen this in a cat before, it’s so remarkable and I’m glad this condition doesn’t hurt them in any way.
