I had planned to keep silent for a while, after 2 messages in one week, but today’s surprise I ‘must’ tell about.
The weather is still cold (6*C) and windy, and I needed both mittens and a woollen cap today. I started out at the airport, where I gave up yesterday. Little to . . . → Read More: ….and furthermore

By Birding-Aus, on May 21st, 2018 My apologies Philip, by “tabby” I meant “ginger”, no black blotches.
En paper perhaps not, but of say a dozen ginger cats seen by me over the years, including pets pre enlightenment , none were xx phenotypes, they all had testes.
Cheers

By Birding-Aus, on May 20th, 2018 Incidentally, all the ginger tabby-marked cats I have known have been males. Perhaps their sisters are the tortoiseshell females. I don’t say there are no ginger females, just that I haven’t met one.
