I love Tabby cats - I have one who is an oriental cross who is beautiful ❤️ and 2 tabby and white cats. (Along with a fluffy black cat and 2 ginger idiots)!

Grey tabbys are the best, mine is a total arsehole but we love her

I'm not even a "cat person" but am still loving this thread! 😻

Here is my tabby girl - she is actually a torbie, with some tortoiseshell mixed in.

I'm torn between tabby and tortoiseshell. Having said which, I currently have a tux and he couldn't be more perfect.

This one’s on his vet records as a “ginger tabby” so here he is.

I've had two boy tabbies, many years ago. Both absolutely bonkers but utterly gorgeous.

I have a very sweet but quite dim little black cat now. She's my little brainless gremlin

@25mini7 what a stunning cat ❤️❤️❤️❤️

HalfasleepChrisintheMorning · 25/12/2025 10:12

Lovely cats all, but black have my heart

I've never chosen a cat, they have all come via the cat distribution system. My latest is currently outside doing kitty business which probably means she is getting food from the neighbours.

Oops, I forgot her photo

Squirrel60 · 25/12/2025 10:32

I LOVE tabbies! Beautiful colours and personality!

NooNakedJacuzziness · 25/12/2025 10:35

This is not my tabby cat but he appears in my house if we dare leave a window open. Maybe it’s his house and he just lets us live here.
