Leanne has sent me the photos of these gorgeous tabby cats and has included her own cat Lenny.

I told her as he is so beautiful I would make him the centrefold cat of the poster.
She replied:
‘yes my Lenny is beautiful, he’s very shy though and doesn’t really like people, he’d be horrified if he knew he was a centrefold!’
lol
So please will no one tell him I have not only put him centrefold but I have gold framed him too.
I love tabby cats, especially brown tabbies, I must post a photo of our own brown tabby Bryan, he was a wonderful cat but his life was too short.
It saddens me that cats lives are very short in comparison with ours and that some people don’t value cats lives as they should be valued and so many end up in Rescue Shelters like Kays Hill.
Do you have a tabby cat or had one in the past, or know one? It would be lovely to see lots more tabby photos here.

Associated: list of pages on PoC when searching for “kays hill past and present” – there is some good stuff here.

A good word because it reminds us that the most common cat coat is perhaps the best. It is the original. All the variations have evolved amongst the domestic cats over 10,000 years.
And here is Reggie who has a bit of tabby amongst a lot of other bits, sadly she too was abandoned and taken away by the RSPCA, fate unknown…
Here is Prozac, a long haired tabby, who was also abandoned and who also found a new home through Kays Hill and is now names Tilly I believe, I wonder how she is doing!
Here’s Lily now called Billy who was abandoned but found a wonderful new home and new name
I mean Pepi was handsome. Poor Mitsi, I fear another sad story coming, she was beautiful!
Some little boys brought him to our door at our old home, we were well known crazy cat ladies there too. They’d been playing by the pond and seen the bag moving, they seemed to be nice kids and Bryan was all wet so we reckon they were telling the truth.
