The Domestic Shorthair is the most common cat in the United States, descended from the cats that arrived with early European settlers. These cats were valued for their ability to protect grain stores from rodents. Over centuries, they have evolved into the diverse and beloved pets we see today, coming in nearly every possible color and pattern.
The 'M' marking on a tabby's forehead is a classic trait of the pattern.
About 80% of orange tabby cats are male due to the genetics of the orange fur gene.
Kittens can spend up to 20 hours a day sleeping to conserve energy for growth.
Domestic Shorthairs are known for their diverse gene pool, often making them very hardy and healthy cats.
