Thread: Grubby nose question

This is quite common for MC kittens in my experience, they collect dirt/crud along the sides of their noses. Has been the case to different degrees for all the MC kittens we have had. They eventually outgrow it. With the first MC kitten we got it caused us to worry that there was something wrong with him causing it, but when we saw the same thing in the next one, we realized that it is normal (small nose slits, stick their noses everywhere, messy eating, etc.).

The other thing you will see with your red guy is crusties in the corners of his eyes periodically. This is also normal, and you have to realize that they are simply much more obvious on a red cat than one whose skin/fur around the eyes is dark.
