I've had him for almost five years now, found him on the side of the road as a young kitten! I've always been told he was an American Bobtail.. But the further I look into it the more doubt I have. Although, he could have part American bobtail features.. What else does he look like? Any info is much appreciated.. He's my world!

All i can tell for certain from the pictures is that he's a grey spotted tabby. If he's a rescue it's very unlikley that he is an american bobtail. Most likely he is just a domestic shorthair (basically a mutt).
He's lovely.
I agree with evolilly on the spotted tabby, he has nicely defined spots on his flanks, and a lovely shiny short hair coat to show them off to best advantage. I love the black stripe hackles down his back too! The tail looks to be quite long from the photos so I doubt bobtail - more fit looking spotted, short hair, tabby to be played with, pampered and enjoyed. He has fabulous big paws too.
I'd love to see a photograph of this tiger awake and in action butn maybe he moves too fast when he's up?

ROFL, I can see your baby-cat has a lovely habit there in your last photo! Hope he never falls in.... I have to keep the lid down at all times in my apartment.
Those spots really are nicely defined, and love how they follow round on to his chest. So clear over his back haunches too - even when he's curled up!
He is gorgeous, can we have his name?

Yeah, nice and beautiful spotted tabby, domestic. Not bobtail, nor a misunderstood bengal. A perfectly good, " whole wool" domestic, here in the rare variation of a very nicely spotted tabby.
A honor for every decent home.

Thank you all! His name is Tigger. He goes by "Tiggy", and yea he is the man of the house. Another thing tho, here recently he has been more affectionate as usual.. Seems like since I've been bringing my boyfriend around it makes him a little,jealous. This is normal tho, right?
