obviously boiling cat personality down to “orange cats are crazy, black cats are chill, etc.” is already somewhat inaccurate, but i would look into the non-white color of your cat’s coat to guess a personality (ex do they have orange fur, black fur, etc.). american short/long hair is kind of a catchall term for any cat that lacks a specific breed.Īs for personality, the spectrum of cats that can have white spots is so broad that there isn’t one answer. MOST cats you’ll adopt from the shelter/find outside fall under the “american shorthair” breed. there are also “ghost tabbies”, which are cats with incredibly faint tabby markings that may only appear in the sun however, they still carry the tabby gene. the different tabby patterns present as different genes. spotted cats can be tabby or not, and any solid color cat can be tabby. The tabby gene is separate from the spot gene. interestingly, many all white cats are actually a black/orange cat who’s fur is one giant spot. There are 4 distinct tabby patterns: Classic Tabby, Mackerel Tabby, Spotted Tabby and the Ticked Tabby. lilac, seal, gray, silver, red, brown, golden, cinnamon, chocolate, blue and black smoke. ![]() The simplified presentations of the “white spots” gene is SS, Ss, and ss (>50% spots, <50% spots, no spots). A tabby cat is a cat of any breeding that displays a coat pattern featuring stripes, swirls, dots and rings. calico cats are not included in this though. ![]() this includes cats that look white with another color spots (ex white cat w/ black spots)-they’re actually (color) with white spots. So this is the semi inaccurate layman’s version of white spotted cats genetics:Īll white spotted cats are another color of cat (grey, brown, black, orange, etc.) with white spots.
