Spider the Tuxedo Maine Coon Cat!      Meet Spider the black and white Maine Coon. He is a year old and his parents are Jane and Roman. He looks like he is wearing a tuxedo! Tuxedo cats get their name from being mostly black with a white chest, as if they were wearing a little tuxedo. While this pattern is often associated with black and white cats, it can also apply to blue and white white. There are also red colored tuxedos and reverse tuxedos who are white on top and black on the bottom. This is a color pattern and not breed-specific. Tuxedos are called bicolor. Bicolors can also have different patterns as well. It's the white on them that gives the name. Other Bicolor patterns are harlequin which are random patches of black and white. Van-patterned will be mostly white with the top of their head and tail being another color. The gene for tuxedo cats' distinctive white spotting is dominant, so it only takes one parent with this gene to pass it on. This does mean however that two cats with no white spotting will never have tuxedo kittens. If the gene is present in a cat, it shows in its appearance.
