Tabby cats of all coat patterns have a few characteristics in common. Tabby have a distinct “M” marking that appears on the forehead. Tabbies have eyeliner-like stripes around their eyes, as well as stripes on their cheeks. The tabby cat pattern universally includes a striped down the cat’s back, and banding on the legs and tail
Tabby cat patterns differ mostly in the markings on a cat’s body. Tabby cat coat patterns are usually separated into four categories. The four tabby cat patterns currently recognized by the Cat Fancier Association are mackerel tabbies, classic tabbies, spotted tabbies and ticked tabbies.
