Harry is a perfect example of a blue tabby.

Oooh a bit of controversy - I like it  :rofl: Have done my votes and thankfully nothing controversial  :evillaugh: -  two tabbies, one tortie and one ginger and white. One tabby and tortie sadly at rainbow bridge but currently owned by one tabby and one ginger and white.  :Luv:

Pearl would be MOST offended if I had to call her a "grey"  :doh:

She threatens to fart in the face of anyone who describes her as anything BUT blue.  :sick:

Ok maybe tomorrow, Harry is a dirty stop out and will not be in till the wee hours and he not too good with his spelling so mummy has to help him out, but yes there will be a protest and am sure Lukey and Riley will have something to say too.  :evillaugh:

Nah sorry cant do it, there is nothing posh about Harry, he is officially a tramp!

Hum may have to get him up here to start a protest on cats mouth.  :evillaugh:

Lucas and Riley said they'll hold a banner for him  :wow:  They want me to retract my 'blue' votes and get a backbone - they've never heard anything so ridiculous - blue cats  :Crazy:  :doh:

Sorry they will be no grey cos the official name for grey is blue and effectively there are no grey cats :shify: :shify:

Now from an artists point of view grey is just a shade of other colours and mosts greys are a version of blue.

Come on let him be an officialy posh grey and vote blue  :hug: :hug: :hug:

I am going to do my voting on weekend when i have time off work! I have only three cats now,but to do my babies at the bridge is going to take a while :( ? Ithink when you count the votes on the last day you findout many peeps on purrs do have b or b/w, but the problem comes from the people who dont have many cats and when they go to a rescue home thier first choice is mostly other colours,thats why is so many b or b/w are available? Tonight i checked on line the rescue i mentioned last week to see if any of the thirteen have been rehomed but sadly not and now there is fifteen and i think they put the ones which are more difficult to rehome on line ,i am not sure though? One thing i am sure at this rescue they find it difficult to rehome the FIV ones,tere are two blacks and one young tabby and they havebeen there for long time,if people are not interested in healthy young b or b/w whats the chances for the two blacks with FIV??  Well tomorrow is the world animal day,lets hope atleastfor one day people are kinder to little furrybabes :)

we didn't get a choice - our local rescue just gave us 2 of what they had available.  As OH said, doesn't really matter what colour they are, all kittens have a shelf-life and are harder to shift the older they get cos some people only want really little 'uns  :'(.

We just wanted 2  ;D

Right I will try and add some more categories, I was at the beginning trying to keep it simple, which should really have been Black, black and white and the rest  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Its confusing and I accept that, cos I didnt keep it simple but I knewwwwwwwwwwww someone would complain and I lost my Others that I cant remember category cos I changed it to colourpoint cos was drowning in Gillians persians early this morning.........sigh.

Right will do my best but it will just get more confuddling cos I cant change the order of the list, well ummmm without a lot of work, sooooooooooooo make it clear what you need from now on..........it ginger and white 5th vote or bengals 7th vote cos thinking cant remember how many bengals linda has............sigh

Whe the poll is finished I will add up the votes and see what we have but I reckon that the black and whites are very well owned by Purrs people  ;D

Well Mosi counts as ginger but he's not the same colour as your hooligans  ;D  I've put him down as 'ginger' but following the reasoning I gave you for Abys being tabbies, Mosi should be a red tabby and down as 'tabby'  ;D 

Oh it's just too confusing!

ummm I think we need a section .... 2 of my babies are Abysinnians and are described as (usual) however I will accept a red / brown section  ;)

Well ticking is really just a form of the tabby pattern, so technically they could be counted as tabbies.  Although I have put Mosi down as ginger and not tabby.. look what you've started, Gill  :rofl:

GINGER  :Crazy: I don't think Zephyr will be very happy with that  :rofl: but just  to keep the peace I'll go with it.  ;)
