You can have mine, she's just ragged the Christmas tree over, the bint.

Tabbys are beautiful.

But my beautiful wee cat, long gone, was a calico cat so they will always be my favourites.

Gorgeous but naughty

My tabby really thought I was her master. I much prefer gingers, they are brilliant.

Tabby cat was my best boy ever. We have a black cat now he’s very silly.

This one is very chatty and enjoys balancing on the bannister to scare me for fun 😹

Me too! This one pretends he’s a baby & cuddles up with me all the time while my tuxedos watch in disgust. 😂

Absolutely 💯 agree.

I have 2, adore them.

CatChant · 25/12/2025 00:22

Tabbies are adorable. But all of mine have had a slightly wild/adventurous streak.

CarbonArtist · 25/12/2025 00:24

Here’s my beautiful boy.

Mine is being like an over excited toddler at the moment asking and poking for a second tin of tuna and it's not even 1am.

Our girl, looking much more refined than she actually is.

What a wonderfully pedestrian name for a cat 😁 my DB is an Ian a massive twat though so this is adorable.

Jugendstiel · 25/12/2025 01:31

Tabbies are gorgeous.

My favourite cats are ginger toms as I have had three over a lifetime and they have all been very affectionate and opinionated. Never aloof. But if I can't rehome a ginger when we are next ready to have a cat, then I'd love a tabby.

Retailrookie · 25/12/2025 01:33

I like black cats the best. Especially solid black cats. They look spooky af

Retailrookie · 25/12/2025 01:34

Like a tiny panther

MrsSPenguins · 25/12/2025 01:34

Trying to sleep but tabby cat thinks it's reasonable to have a second tin of tuna at 1.30am. 8kgs of him.
