I would like to see a couple more of good photos on the side and from above.
But what I see so far, its a domestic alike the great majority of all cats. Shorthair - DSH.
The pattern is tabby, probably mackerel, but I dont see really good.
And the spots on the tummy really donesnt count - its the looks of the side and back which are most important.
Its not only spotted tabby but also many mackerel and classical tabby whom too has spots on the tummy...
What Im a little unsure of, the pattern seems to end halfway on the side... The lower abdomen is reddish without pattern. Probably some sort of roufism, but Im not entirely sure...
Anyways, a nice fellow!

I'll try and get better quality pics. He's a stray or ferel cat and comes to our door late after dark.

Curiously, the pattern isnt clear cut. It seems as something inbetween classic / marble / blotched / bulls-eye tabby, and mackerel / striped / tigrered...
I think now he is really a marbled tabby, where the markings got very uneven....
Possibly he carries both - mackerel and classic. Mackerel normally dominates over classic, but not here...
If he is instead both spotted and classic? I dont think so. I read somewhere spotted is dominant over classic, and the classic background just reinforces the spots...
