50+ Tuxedo Cats Who Might Make You Question Everything You Know About Cats
Tuxedo cats have a way of stealing the whole show, usually with a stare that looks equal parts elegant and unhinged. These black and white cats, sometimes called Felix cats or Julius cats, come in a few different breeds, but their real calling card is personality, and plenty of it.
From dramatic poses to baffling sleeping positions, tuxedo cats seem determined to act like they know something the rest of us do not. That is part of why they are such a favorite, they are stylish, expressive, and just a little bit ridiculous.
Here are 51 tuxedo cats that make a very strong case for their own category of chaos.
