| There are two distinct varieties of coat: the shorthair has a medium length topcoat, the longhair a topcoat that is a little longer. |
| The most common American shorthair color is the silver tabby with dense black markings on a sterling silver background. |

| The first one I remember was a red tabby shorthair, Tommy, who died young as a result of a fight with another tom. |
