'''[[Smoke]]''' is the name given to the [[cat]] colour in which the bottom eighth of each hair is white or creamy-white, with the rest of the hair being a solid colour. Genetically this colour is a non-[[Agouti signalling peptide|agouti]] cat with the dominant inhibitor gene; a non-agouti version of the silver [[tabby]].
Smoke cats will look solid coloured until they move, when the white undercoat becomes apparent. It is mostly found in [[pedigreed cat]]s (especially longhair breeds) but also present in some [[domestic longhaired cat]]s.
