Black Cats – Color Variations

-Black cats come in different shades. Some appear more grey and others more brown. Black “smokes” are lighter due to a white undercoat.  Auburn hued black cats have been in the sun.

-Some black cats have tabby markings. If you look closely in the right light, you may be able to see the tell-tale striping, and even the classic bulls-eye.

-Black cats often have white markings. The most common is a white spot on their necks, known as a locket. Black cats with white “bibs” are called Tuxedos.
