15 Reasons Why NOT to Get a Tabby Cat

[@Co3471]

Tabby is a coat pattern....NOT a breed. Many cat breeds can be tabbies. Therefore the idea they all share specific traits unique to tabbies is a lie.

[@markdayell61]

well said. This video should be removed due for being so blatantly misleading and inaccurate.

[@AzureFox20]

Agreed, I have 2 but the first one loves to cuddle with me so…..

[@jacquicleijne9525]

Pretty negative about Tabby cats. All cats have these traits to some extent. Let them be cats and keep them enclosed with a Catio providing enrichment and spending time with them every day will ensure a happy healthy cat, tabby or otherwise.

[@TheTraveler33]

It never ceases to amaze me what people will believe. This video has ALL up votes as of right now. Yet I didn't see any value whatsoever in this video. I now own a tabby and have owned all colors of tabby's over the years. I have not noticed any different behavior in them than any other cat. I did notice that black and grey cats tend to be more temperamental than most others though. Most of the things listed here are examples of what you will experience with any color of cat. I didn't see one thing in this video I would attribute to tabby's only. So they are the ONLY colored cat that stinks up a litter box if it's NOT cleaned? And the only ones that scratch furniture, etc.? Lol. Yeah, sure. I guess I should have gotten a white cat that doesn't like to climb or claw things and has urine that smells like fine wine and the other body excrement that smells like hershey's chocolate I guess. Lol.

[@dakotaxu4792]

I had a tabby cat for over 10 years and we loved each other so much. I could care less about the scratched furniture. My tabby got along with the other cats. My tabby was super quiet when I slept at night. My tabby cat brought so much joy into my life. This video very negative and the person who posted it has no idea what they are talking about by mixing negative comments with advice

[@annlavine3576]

I have been a mom to many tabbies they are delightful. Keep a diet if you have to. territory just spay or neuter. My tabbies got along with everyone. They adjusted well and shed no more than any other cat. Scratching is normal. hunting keep inside. Always good to have a clean litter box Spend time with your cat just as you would with a child. Tabbies are healthy

[@jamessosa7765]

I must say that after watching this video, i should probably buy a lottery ticket because, apparently, I hit the jackpot with my year and half old tabby. First time cat owner, adopted him at around 6 months, ZERO furniture issues, best companion I could have ever asked for. No litter box issues. Even though he's a bit picky with food, he doesn't overeat. He's so smart and playful, I'm constantly trying to stay one step ahead of him, and this may be the biggest issue since my job doesn't have a fixed schedule. I honestly feel that this video is more of a "I-want-a -cat-period" type of owner problem, rather than tabby cat issue.

[@paullowman9131]

I had a tabby with a white bib and white feet that I found left near a dumpster and I called her Fuzzy. She was neutered and had been given her shots (she never got sick). She was my boon companion for 13 1/2 years and was very low maintenance. She passed this past Spring and I miss her terribly.

I have been a cat owner for 40 years. I currently have a tabby and the rest were non tabby's (8 cats in total) and what you just described is ALL cats!! The only thing I have noticed a tabby over other cats is the prone to obesity. All in all, I find this vid was click bait and does a disservice to tabby's!

[@invaderzimfanone5408]

This video is pretty inaccurate. I’ve been around tabby cats all my life and no they aren’t territorial, and they aren’t super vocal unless you raise them that way, some don’t even have seperation anxiety. I guess this was a clickbait video as most of the stuff in this video is pretty inaccurate, yes tabby cats can get obese but will stop eating once full, they are one of the most playful and curious pets I’ve ever owned and the kittens fur is so soft but they are easily cold which is why they hate water and not all tabby cats hate other cats. Mine loves my other cat which is part tabby cat

[@naturesrhythm8506]

Temperament is related to breed. Since tabby is not a breed but a type of coat pattern, we can discard this advice.

Most of my cats were strays that adopted me, so I didn't have a choice in what I got. With that in mind, I've had three tabbies so fara. I had one for 20 years, and I had to put her to sleep 11/9/16 after 20+ years together. My next cat was a former street cat from Peru, and he was a tabby. I recently got him another companion after the calico was PTS for a lung tumor; the new feline companion is also a tabby. I wanted to adopt a black cat or another calico, but the tabby was the best fit to be a companion to my resident tabby. Let me say this: I've found tabbies to be faithful, loving, and loyal companions. They're great!

With my family that we adopted 2 red tabby cats. One in mid July 1979 and the other mid November 1981. They did both shed a lot. They both became friends to each other. One was very healthy on his weight. The other cat was a little bit bigger and his weight was 20 pounds for a long time. The 1st cat lived a long life. My parents had him almost 18 years. The other cat just a little bit over 12 years. The 2nd cat was more than my cat than the other cat. They were both sweet and friendly cats in different ways. I do missed them both. The 1st cat had gotten sweeter in his old age. The 2nd cat was very sweet and friendly. I don’t mind if one purrs loudly because it was a sign that a cat loves that person.

[@miketully9905]

My Tiny Tabby is a feral, young adult cat, not a runt or anything, just unusually small. She has no interest at all in playing. Playing with anything, cat toys, string toys, balls, squeaky toys, other cats, or even fingers. Basically, as soon as she figures out she can't eat it, she looses interest and walks away. For the first 3 years she lived with me she also didn't meow. In fact, aside from her only barely audible purr, the ONLY sound she'd make is a kind of grunt. Whenever she'd jump up on something, like a bed, a table, or a chair, she'd let out a kind of grunt that sounded like "Merf!". Which is why I named her Murphy. She doesn't like being picked up (regardless of how you support her), or even held, but she is however a serious cuddle bug. If I'm taking a nap, she curls up behind my knees, or against my tummy. If I'm reading a book on my back, she pushes my elbow away from my side, then snuggles up with her front paws under my armpit, and her chin resting on my shoulder. If I'm on the computer, on the kamode, or just sitting watching TV, she's asleep on my lap. She, and my other two cats, have their own "cat rules" that I'm expected to follow. Like... touching someone while they're making biscuits (kneading) is just RUDE! Also, no matter what you're doing, if your about to do something different, then you have to let everyone in the room know that, so that it doesn't cause mass panic. And the way you let everyone know you're about to do something different, is to stretch first, THEN go do it. That way everyone in the room knows that there's nothing to panic over, and goes back to whatever they were doing. But oh-ho man if you don't stretch first, if you're sitting, and suddenly just stand up without warning, then suddenly everyone's up, wide awake, and ready to bolt. Until they realize it's a false alarm, the big hairless kid just forgot to stretch - AGAIN. There are lots of other rules, but, since this video was mostly a waste of time I thought I'd ask if anyone else has any "cat rules" they've learned to follow. Anybody?

🐱 FUNNY! I’m a volunteer at a veterinarian. Here’s a few tips for longer life: Cut back on dry cat food. it can cause urinary blockage, and kidney disease, over time, especially for male cats. Upgrade your cat food quality. Purina One canned and dry, is a good brand. Most cat food brands are low quality, thats why you pay less. 🐈 Coyote attacks on Outdoor cats and traffic fatalities are on the rise, so keep your cat Indoors. 🐾 If you have a senior cat, bring it in for a full senior blood panel. it’s a quick, easy way to assess its basic all around health, while its still early. Our cats can live healthier & longer. 🐱 ‘INDOOR’ CAT FOODS ARE LOWER IN CALORIES

[@jamespirko2971]

Elvis the Cat was a charcoal grey tabby, who walked into a Tupelo Mississippi BBQ and Blues juke joint, hopped onto a barstool in front of the bartender. The bartender gently shooed him outside. When I went to leave, this cat was still hanging around outside. I coaxed him to allow me to approach him, petting him under his chin. He responded by purring loudly. He chose to be adopted. I opened the car door, and he stepped inside, purring joyfully. I drove him to my house, where he got out of my car and walked to the front door. He had the looks and intelligence of an African Wild Cat. His instincts were wild, and he proved to be a skilled predator. I miss that formidable tomcat.

Also, keep your cat Indoors only. There’s been a spike of predator attacks on cats, and traffic hit and runs

I don’t have a tabby, so I don’t have a bias in this discussion, but based on her evidence, “never adopt a tabby” is ridiculous. Every issue mentioned is either manageable (weight gain, being clingy) or applies to all cats (scratching, litter box issues, needing stimulation, lifespan). I can’t imagine what cat (or dog or horse or …) WON’T involve lifestyle limitations! Even if you have goldfish, you have to arrange to have them fed if you go out of town. I wonder what pet she’s thinking of that humans won’t outlive? Giant tortoises, maybe? Few common pets generally have a longer lifespan than humans.

Tabby is just a coat pattern. I just adopted a male tabby and he is the sweetest best personality ever ! I’ve also owned a tuxedo cat which was my first cat. I feel each individual cat has their own personality I’ve worked at a shelter so most of this information is not true. Please don’t slam cats it makes it seem like you don’t want anyone to own a tabby. And there are so many cats that need homes.

Only the (here born) black cat had them. - My first cat (tabby too) moved in 3 years about 5 times with me, he never cared about the house he was living in, within 2 days after moving to another house he could go outside without any problems. He never did a runner. Etcetera.

[@jimscharfenberger2]

Nonsense. I love my two rescue tabbies and they love me back!

[@Mezy8]

Ok well this is just animal life. Think of them as little toddlers u have to take care of, they are cute and kind then they act like they own the place. But I have a ginger tabby and he is not messy and he’s actually and outdoor cat so I have different signals to call him or something. He is not annoying he is an adult

[@Tombola1993]

I own one anyway, so there’s no turning back.
