Cat-facing, or catfacing, refers to a type of physiological damage affecting tomatoes and represented by scarring and cavities near the blossom end.[1]

This condition is usually caused by unfavorable growing conditions like drops in temperature and poor soil.[2] Cat-facing appears when part of the fruit develops before the rest, disease, or by insect adults and nymphs feeding on the surface of the fruit as indicated by unsightly dimpling, deformity, and deciduous scarring.[3] Similar damage can also appear on fruits such as peaches, apples and grapes.

Fruit that has catface abnormalities can still be eaten but is not necessarily marketable.[4]
