About Tabby Cats

Tabby is not a breed but rather a coat pattern found in many cat breeds and mixed-breed cats. Characterized by distinctive stripes, dots, or swirling patterns with an "M" marking on the forehead, tabby cats are among the most common and beloved cats worldwide. The pattern comes in classic, mackerel, spotted, and ticked varieties.

Adopting a tabby cat means welcoming a cat whose personality is as varied and wonderful as their patterns. Found in shelters everywhere, tabbies make fantastic companions with diverse temperaments shaped by their individual backgrounds. Their familiar, beautiful markings and loving personalities have made them favorites for centuries.

Adopting in New York, NY

New York City is one of the best places in the country to adopt a pet. With hundreds of shelters and rescue organizations across all five boroughs, you can find dogs, cats, and other companions waiting for a forever home.

From Central Park strolls to neighborhood dog runs, NYC offers endless ways to bond with your new best friend. Adopt, don't shop, and give a shelter pet the city life they deserve.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

25°F to 38°F

Dec – Feb

NYC winters bring snow, ice, and salted sidewalks that can irritate paw pads. Use booties or paw wax before walks, and wipe paws when you get home. Wind chill between buildings can be intense, so keep outings shorter for small or thin-coated breeds.

Spring

42°F to 65°F

Mar – May

Spring is one of the best times to explore Central Park, Prospect Park, and the city’s many dog runs as temperatures warm up. Watch for puddles and mud in off-leash areas after rain. Allergy season can affect pets too, so monitor for excessive scratching or sneezing.

Summer

68°F to 85°F

Jun – Aug

High humidity and hot pavement are the biggest summer hazards for NYC pets. Walk early morning or after sunset, and always carry water. The city’s concrete retains heat, so test the sidewalk with your hand before heading out.
