Silver-Point vs. Silver-Shaded British Shorthair: What’s the Difference
Silver-point and silver-shaded British Shorthairs both belong to the shaded color family, but the silver point is a pointed variant with much lighter hair tips and blue eyes. The fastest way to tell them apart is eye color — blue means silver point, while green or yellow-green means silver shaded — and the silver point also carries a noticeably paler coat.
My three-month-old Silver Gradient cat – yesterday afternoon while playing it jumped about 50 cm up and probably lost control; I don’t know if it fell or if I heard a thud. Right after coming back from its third vaccine shot in the evening, there was blood – not in stool, more like dripping, not sure if vomited. Spirits fine, eating/drinking/pooping fine. There’s something on its nose that wasn’t there before; not sure if from the nose.
If your cat jumped from a height yesterday and you heard the sound of a fall, and then later there was bleeding from an uncertain source, it is recommended to see a veterinarian promptly. The bleeding may be caused by an injury from the jump, or it may be related to nasal damage or internal injury. If you find an external bleeding point you can press it with gauze to stop the bleeding, but other internal or nasal bleeding generally requires a veterinarian to perform the proper examination and diagnosis, to determine the cat's condition and provide appropriate treatment. While waiting for the appointment, keep the cat quiet and comfortable and provide clean drinking water and food.
Silver Mosaic Chinchilla
Some Silver Mosaic Chinchillas give the illusion of being all gray, but on close look their underfur is white; most can be told apart. The Silver Mosaic Chinchilla's scientific name is South American chinchilla, and because its appearance resembles the cartoon chinchilla in Hayao Miyazaki's film 'My Neighbor Totoro,' Hong Kong people renamed it 'Silver Mosaic Chinchilla.'

What breed is a ‘gradient’ (golden/silver shaded) cat?

Why Does My Silver Shaded Cat Shed So Much?
The silver shaded is a British Shorthair with a dense double coat, so it simply has far more hair to lose than a single-coated cat—earning its 'walking dandelion' reputation. Shedding doubles in the spring and autumn molts and during the kitten-to-adult and spay/neuter hormone shifts. Daily brushing, infrequent baths, and good nutrition manage it; patchy or symmetric loss with skin changes means a vet visit.
