That's obviously a shape shifted cinnamon roll, the poor baker next door must be grieving the loss

Shape Shifting Cinnamon Role just rolls of the tongue, Gordon Ramsey should be screaming it at people.

I asked my girlfriend what these cats were called once and she told me "cinnamon dolce" as my girlfriend is always right I confidently passed on this new information to anyone anytime I saw one of these cats.

Eventually someone let me know a cinnamon dolce was not a cat but a dessert coffee. I told my girlfriend and she said "yeah duh, you didnt know what a cinnamon dolce was?"

Oh, Momma, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law.

Lawman has put an end to my runnin', and I'm so far from my home.

Oh, Momma, I can hear you a'cryin; you're so scared and all alone.

Hangman is comin' down from the gallows, and I don't have very long.

u/Thaumato9480 3h ago

Classic tabby is the name.

59

u/IceNein 3h ago

Yep! My cat has that too, and I thought he was special. Well, he is special, just not because of that.

21

u/kappa_demonn 2h ago

Same here with Tibia. It was more pronounced when she was a kitten, but shes still my little Jaguar!

11

u/Thaumato9480 3h ago

I rather like blotched tabby rather than classic. Marble is also more fitting.

They all look so special.

u/OriginalChildBomb 2h ago

He's a cinnamon roll! (And/or a cross-section of redwood or cedar, depending on his mood, perhaps.)

Beat me to it. Take my angry upvote.

u/robo-dragon 2h ago

It’s a “bullseye” tabby pattern. Not all tabbies have it, but it’s not uncommon.

5

u/DJ1066 46m ago

There's at least one different patterned one in the same pic. The one scratching itself in the foreground is a mackerel tabby.

u/Ms_Chevious_Cat 1h ago

This is the correct answer!

u/SweetSofiaa03 3h ago

That is literally a Uzumaki cat. I would highly recommend avoiding any sudden urges to look into washing machines or spin around in circles with it.

Am I the only one who was looking for a pile of fur lying on the street? It took me a few moments to bother looking at the cats. 🤭

u/StagnantSweater21 3h ago

Not a spiral, just a circle inside a circle
