How old is Sunny? This is a sign for aging! This means the older Sunny gets his nose turns pink. But, this could also mean he has Vitiligo disease. Vitiligo disease is an immune disease. Vitiligo will commonly have white patches of hairs throughout the rest of the body.

It doesn't really look like a change of pigment, but it's difficult to tell from the picture. Probably ought to have the vet look at it. Good luck!

I am so sorry I haven't seen this before. I would at least just give your vet a call.
Sorry for not being any more help! :(
Let us know what it is! BOL!

I looked at Sunny's photo. It looks like a little infection to me. It could have started as an insect bite or scratch. I'd take Sunny to the vet. My guess a Sunny will need an oral antibiotic or cream to clear it right up. Since it's the weekend, you could try a little over the counter ointment from the drug store like neosporin. I'd put it on sparingly and in a small spot first to make sure it doesn't sting and Sunny doesn't lick it right off. (If he won't leave it on and wants to lick it off, it could cause ingestion problem and then you'd be swapping one problem for another...)
