(I know I'm not zippy-kat, but I hope I can explain it anyways)

I had never heard that term either until I came to Pet Talk, but from what I gather it's short for "tuxedo" and is what black and white cats are called.

Thanks Ann, I get SO clever from this board! LOL!

I'll try and post more pics of him - soon! Getting dark here now, so I'm going to feed him! Will give him an extra cuddle from all of you! (he will love that!) I may even miss "Geo Genious" on TV!

Randi, Ritz is also what I would call a "tux" kitty...ie, she has colorings that make it look like they are wearing tuxedos....white tie, white spats (an old form of shoe style)...however the amount of white-to-black ratio varies from tuxcat to tuxcat....Scooter is another tux-marked kitty, only with more white "shirt" ....I always considered the spotted black and white (no particular arrangement of spots, just random) more like a spotted cow marking.....some call these moocow kitties...(If you haven't figured it out yet, I LOVE black and white cats)

Today's COTD (Friday) is what I would call a grey tuxedo kitty...although black and white is the typical coloration, any "coat" color with the white markings is "tux like"...I've seen some grey and orange tabbies, and even some calicos, with very similar markings that make them look like they have really jazzy tuxedos on.


Your Pjev is a very classic tuxedo man...and I like the neat variation of his chin fur....a striking kitty...I'm in tuxluvr heaven again!

What a sweetheart.... he is beautiful!

Randi, Pjevs is a gorgeous cat. I'm so glad that you're able to take care of him. Thanks for sharing the pictures of him.

Awwww, Pjevs looks like such a sweetheart.

Peanut could be considered a calico tux. She's got the white chest and tummy, along with the white spats, both front and back.

Oh, indeed! Peanut has the most FABULOUS tuxedo of all - it looks a lot like a mink coat!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Has netsnapshots.com stopped allowing us to post pictures? Peanut shows up as a little red x. I noticed that on a few other's posts and was wondering if I missed something while I was gone. This picture of Peanut was already there, that's why I used them. But I've started using imagestation for the bulk of the pictures now. Much easier program to deal with.

Oh my!! I never looked at it like that. But yes, I can see it.

He is so pretty! I am glad you are taking care for the sweetie!

t&p's mom - it appears that this has just started happening. yesterday my netsnapshot pics worked fine, in fact this morning they were fine and this afternoon they are all pooped out....so irritating.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

I got an email from netsnapshots.com See the new thread I started in Other I agree, so irritating.

Randi,

What a beautiful tuxedo boy he is! And very lucky to have you to care for him. I love tuxedo cats. Wish I had one. But, I'm way over my limit in a 2 bedroom apartment (7 cats). One day maybe!
