question about tabby cats

[Abby&Buddy'sMom]

A woman I work with told me yesterday that any cat that has "tabby" in them will have a letter "M" on their forehead right above their eyes. Is this true?:confused:

[catnapper]

Hmm... I have 4 tabbies. Miss Abby is the only one I have with a true M on her forehead. The other three just have stripes or Vs. I am the consummate Tabby person too! :D A tabby basically has stripes, and the immediate incdicator is the striping on their forehead but they also have stripes along their tails too.

Ha! That is one of those thing you just don't notice but Amy and Chester both have what could be called that "M"....

Mina's M stands for Mischieveous little squirt.

Cracker Jack has only half of the M. Where the other half should be is white. Hmm...wonder what that means?

Must get picture, must get picture, must get........

Mina's M stands for Mischieveous little squirt.
You've got the Mischieveous part right, at least where my Abby is concerned!
:cool: She kind of has that "M" too.
