Default One white whisker

Dear Martha is a curious kitty. A tortie, she has a dark face with
dark whiskers to match. All except one, which is snow white. And not
to be outdone, her new little adopted sister Sophie has a gorgeous
shiny all-black (Kiwi rugby fans pls note!) coat, save for two tiny
patches of white on her back and flank. Only about 2 or 3 hairs each,
but again, pure white - you have to be very close to her to even see
them. I say, "Vive la difference!" Do any of your kitties have
colouration quirks along these lines???

At first glance, Weeble is all-black, but he has 2 pure white hairs on his
throat, and a patch of about 5 on his right elbow - not to mention the
bunches you can't see on his belly: one near his left 'armpit' and between
his back legs.

A couple of my white cats hat tiny patches of black fur on the top of
their heads, but they disappeared as the cat matured.

Speckles is like that too. All black whiskers but one. It gives
her a slightly "cockeyed" look!!!
