Ever since I was a teenager and first saw 'Sparta' the cat I'd been obsessed with mackerel tabbies. (I don't think that was what he was but it was what he looked like, color wise!) I have always adopted the cat that I felt drawn too so that didn't always mean I got a cat that looked like that though, until I ended up with Jasper and Mia! I LOVE the color of their fur, but I also love orange tabbies, too!
