50+ Tuxedo Cats Who Might Make You Question Everything You Know About Cats
Tuxedo cats are bicolor cats with a few interesting nicknames (including Felix cat and Julius cat), and when it comes to a specific variety of cats, tuxedos have a purrsonality that packs a punch. While traditionally speaking, a tuxedo cat is a black and white cat, formally or technically, tuxedo cats are simply white cats with one other color.
Naturally, because we love black cats so much, black and white tuxies are our absolute favorites. This is especially true because these cats have some of the most expressive and ridiculous personalities of all cats, ever.
Most of the time, a tuxedo cat is a Maine Coon, British Longhair, British Shorthair, or some combination of the aforementioned. That may not sound like a ton of options because we know there are so many different breeds of cats, but these are very common and popular cat breeds, so the world has no shortage of tuxedo cats.
Speaking of tuxedo cats being plentiful: thank goodness. These spunky, precious puss pals of ours have some of the most rambunctious and sassy dispositions of all cats (there's actually been scientific research on this, if you can believe it!)
