Well here is another thing I have learnt from my Mylot friends, I have never heard of Tuxedo cats before, and I have one...I don't know if this is an official name or just a name someone with one of these little black and white kitties have but what a great name for them...I love it...

Yes, that is the offical name. I have shared several pictures of my tuxedo kitty. I just uploaded a picture of her sitting in the yeard being all pensive-like. they are very sweet cats. At least mine is. she is very emotional and like to snuggle a great deal. My boyfreind named her Sylvester. I called her Sylvestar.

Yes I probably saw your pics in the interest photos, I have just never heard them being called this before but it really suits them I think...

It is a breed of kitties that does indeed fit their name very well. My cat really does look like she's wearing a tuxedo. I just love her. She's a snuggler and really cute. all she needs is a top hat.
She is the smallest of all of our cats here. I wonder if that's a trait of the breed?

I have heard of that name before too. I am not sure if that is an actual name for the cat though. I think they sell them by that name though.

So I did.
I learnt the term here, and I thought it is allright, for being the black & white cat fur similar to a tuxedo dress for men.
I remember you a tuxedo is an elegant dress for men. Since here derived the name.

Someone recently told me our Morgana is a tuxedo cat...I'd never heard the expression before. It doesn't matter b/c we love her to pieces regardless of what kind she is LOL BTW, my avatar is a pic of her.

I love that term! I always called them cow cats after Jersey cows but we've always said that our cat Fontaine looks like she's all dressed up with nowhere to go in her little fur tuxedo! I always thought that Tux would be a cute name for a kitty like these.

LOL--I'm like you lilaclady...I've had cats all my life and yes, black and white ones, and never knew that was the term for them...I guess it's especially appropriate for predominantly black cats who have white on their chest area...like a tuxedo..

I have learned quite a bit in the last year that I have been a member with mylot. I have learned a lot about different cultures and countries and even different languages. I learned the other day some words in Spanish, from one of the members here. I like to learn new things especially different things about different cultures.
I also have improved on my typing skills since being a member here. I can type really good again. I hadn't typed for many years and now am so good at it I could get a job typing. hehe
I love mylot for many reasons but the biggest reason is the learning about different countries and cultures and languages.

Hey, that's a cute name for a cat. I guess it's called tuxedo cause of the black and white color hehe. I never had cats. Well I have some in my backyard but they're not really mine. They're street cats who just decided to live in my backyard. I still feed them though they're not my pets.
Ciao!
