tabby

Spotted or ticked, mackerel or classic, Tabbies come in a wide spectrum of colors.

TABBY CATS

Does your cat look like a little tiger? That’s a tabby!

Tabby tip: All tabbies have extra-fine lines on their face with expressive markings at the eyes, and a distinctive tabby “M” on their foreheads.

If you think your little tabby friend has a striped coat, you’re almost right. Each individual hair is striped with alternating bands of dark and light. This color banding is called “agouti” and is reminiscent of the hairs of rabbits and squirrels.

Special characteristics define the four tabby types:

MACKAREL TABBY
Narrow stripes that run parallel down its sides are the hallmark of the Mackarel Tabby. This is the cat most commonly referred to as a tiger cat.
• Sgt. Stripes
• Mackarella
• Agouti

CLASSIC TABBY
The Classic Tabby, called the Blotched Tabby in Great Britain, is a feline marble cake with bold, dark swirls forming marbled patterns on its sides.
• Count Orlov - Catherine the Great’s lover for whom she built the Marble Palace
• SwirlGirl
• Travertine - a type of marble

Fun fact: The most common marble (the kind you shoot, not the kind you walk on) is called a Cat’s Eye

SPOTTED TABBY
They can be big or small, but the spots on this tabby are found all over its sides. It has been suggested that they’re “broken” mackerel stripes.
• Spotswell
• Spotlight
• Purrspot

TICKED TABBY
Sometimes called an Agouti or Abyssinian tabby, this cat has typical tabby markings on the face only and agouti hairs on the body. This color appears in non-purebreds in addition to Abyssinians.
• Ticked Off
• The Tick
• Tick-Tock

TABBY COLORS
Spotted or ticked, mackerel or classic, Tabbies come in a wide spectrum of colors. Tabbies get their color designation based on the hue of the agouti hairs (called the ‘ground color’). In some cats this ground color is a pale, washed-out gray; in others, rich orange tones dominate.
