Brown cats are not particularly rare. Brown, especially brown tabby (brown with black stripes) is a very common color in cats. Solid brown cats are somewhat less common, and can be strikingly beautiful. In some breeds, the solid brown color is called chocolate. Some pointed breeds also come in brown colors, such as the seal point Siamese<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In cats, brown coats come in a range of hues, from very light tan to deep chocolate brown. Brown cats also come in a variety of different patterns, including solid brown, brown tabby, brown spotted tabby, brown ticked, brown spotted, brown pointed (often called chocolate point), and bi-colored (brown with white).<\/p>\n
