I wonder why Mimi's fur looks like this
A photo of a Pallas's cat,
Is Mimi in the process of changing into her summer coat?

Yes, apparently the remnants of the winter coat haven’t shed yet)
Yes, right now Pallas's cats are in the middle of their shedding season. Pallas's cats take off their warm winter coats of a reddish hue and change into light summer coats of a gray color.
During this period, Pallas's cats can look funny, because the shedding process happens gradually and usually starts with the head and neck and then continues on. The winter coat may stick out in odd tufts — at this moment, Pallas's cats look quite extravagant 😄
It is also worth noting that, with age, the quality of the animal's fur gradually deteriorates and shedding may become more difficult; mats may form🙏
