    Ok, I've been waiting all day for someone to come up with a clever "E" word ... apparently you all have been waiting, too.

    I don't think there is one! How about a "sort of" one ....

    Ebony

    And, since that is probably lame and not really a color for a pet ... I get to do "F", too!

    Fawn

    Harlequin

    I found this on the cat fancier's web site at www.fanciers.com

    Cats with white markings might have larger or smaller areas of white. If you want to describe your cat's color more precisely, there are different names for the different amounts of white:

    A "mitted" cat just has white paws.
    A cat with a white spot on its chest has a "locket."
    A cat with one or more little white belly spots has "buttons."
    A "bi-color" is about half white.
    A "harlequin" is mostly white with several large patches of color.
    A "van" is almost all white with color patches only on the head and tail.

    Irish = have a moderately sized, evenly shaped white marking on the belly, four white feet, white tail tip.
    This is for rats/mice and it may be more of a marking than a color, but will it do?

    Ok, we're stuck again, eh?

    I don't think there is a "real" color name for the letter "J" ....

    so how about .....

    Jet black??

    (I can't think of a "K" one either .....)

    there may not be a "U" as the only color I can think of is Umber and I do not know if they use this in any animal species' description.

    but for "V" I know they use variegated.
