Clarence is an outdoor cat who “belongs” to some friends of mine in Baton Rouge. Why is he a mutant?

Unlike most cats, he’s not big on grooming so he usually looks like Pigpen from Peanuts.
The picture below doesn’t quite do justice to his magisterial dustiness but he hates being photographed so it’s the best I can do:
