This is my old boy
His base coat, as I'm told, is called a satin, made up of very fine and very soft fur. And in a few areas it's really thin or gone. He's also a silver which is a white long hair that gives him a frosted look. When he sheds, most of the silvered hair falls out but a winter coat brings them back.
In other words, Cado has a comb over in the winter time. And it doesn't look any better on a rat than human folks.
