His owner, David Platt, bought Scrappy as a kitten. His fur started turning white seven years later.

"When he was seven, my mum was looking after him and rang me to say a white patch had appeared on his head. In the next few years, Scrappy began to get more and more white patches, then it slowed down. But in the last three or four years it has started again."
