I noticed dark marks on the edge of my cats nose which I originally thought was just dirt so I tried wiping it and realized it actually looks like her skin.

They are sort of like a hard scab but they don't seem to cause her discomfort I just want to know what they are as they seem to of appeared rapidly!

Does anyone know what they are or had an experience with this too?!

Hi. Can you send a pic to your vet and ask about it? They might have an idea about some possible causes. I would start there and see what they say. How old is your cat?

Keep us posted.

Where do you think?
Does your cat get lots of sun? Possibly a form of sun burn or cancer white nosed cats are especially prone to this. It looks early enough if it is cancer that something can be done to treat it. She needs to see a vet soon.
