Four Coats, Four Moods
Coat color does not determine a cat's personality, but cat people know how easily a coat becomes part of family mythology. The tuxedo becomes the little gentleman. The calico becomes the quilt of opinions. The tabby becomes the classic companion. The ginger becomes a warm loaf with a tail.
Tuxedo Cats
Black and white, formal and funny, as if they arrived already wearing a tiny suit.
Calicos
Patches of white, orange, and black make every calico look hand-painted.
Tabbies
Classic stripes, swirls, or spots: the everyday poetry of the domestic cat.
Gingers
Orange cats carry the visual warmth of a late afternoon window.
