Approximately 75% of tabby cats are male. This skewed ratio is largely due to the genetic inheritance of the tabby coat pattern, which is often linked to the X chromosome. Since males have one X and one Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes, the prevalence of male tabby cats is notably higher.
