What Color Cat Are You?

You're a black cat! You probably could've guessed that, huh? The most famous cat in the cat world: half the world seems to think they're are bad luck, and the other half thinks they're good luck. Unfortunately, some shelters won't adopt out black cats during October because they might be used sacrificially or as Halloween props!

You're a grey tabby! Despite how different they look, grey and brown tabbies are typically considered the same color, because if they didn't have any stripes, they'd both be solid black cats! That's because they both have black stripes, and it's the stripes that tell you what a cat's true color is.

You're a golden tabby! You almost look like a brown tabby, but your coat and most of your stripes are lighter, giving you a more "golden" appearance. You might notice some darker stripes on your legs, tail, and head, though. Ticked golden tabbies are also called golden shaded or chinchilla cats. Unlike most cats, where the color of the stripe tells you the color of the cat (i.e. black stripes = black cat. If, you know, it didn't have stripes). The golden tabby is a rare exception to that rule as, if it didn't have those golden stripes, it would actually be a black cat! CRAZY!
