The coat of the British cat is very fluffy and soft, though quite short. British cats tend to many different colors, the most popular — solid (gray-blue, black, purple, chocolate), tabby and silver tabby, their varieties: spot, strip and marble.
Solid-colors, in which the whole body of the cat is painted evenly in one color, without a single point. The most common monochrome color of the British Shorthair — gray-blue.
Tortoiseshell — a combination of black with red, blue and cream, this color is preferably more uniform combination of black (or blue, etc.), and red (or cream) colors. However, due to the fact that selection (that is, a particular selection of the pairs) do not affect the distribution of spots in color, the turtles do not impose such strict requirements in color, as the solid colors.
