Black Smoke Maine Coon Cats express the dominant black gene (B) combined with the silver inhibitor gene (I) which suppresses the color at the base of the hairs resulting in the distinctively smokey look. The silver at the base of a solid Maine Coon Cat’s hair is called smoke, but in a tabby cat, it’s referred to as silver. The same silver inhibitor gene (I) produces the silver in both colors!
