So as well as the cat fancy definitions, I've covered as many variations as I can and there are no doubt many more out there! Nature isn't so restricted in its patterns and there are numerous variations found in random-bred cats and emerging breeds (particuarly those with hybrid ancestry) that aren't recognised by the cat fancy. For example the "marbled tabby" seen in Bengals is a variation on the "classic tabby". The cat fancy recognises four basic types of tabby (ticked, mackerel, classic, spotted) with breed-specific variations on each of these types. When sold in England, this silk was called atabi or - by those who misheard - taffety.
Their name was said to have been derived from a street in Baghdad celebrated for the manufacture of its watered or moire silks.
In the early days of cat exhibitions, tabbies were divided into banded and spotted. These are two examples of tabby, or striped, cat. Moreover, they are low shedding cats and one of the longest living felines.For most people, two of the most familiar "types" of cat are the "blotched tabby" and the "ginger tom" (or "marmalade cat"). Fascinating, right?ĭespite their resemblance to wild ocelots, Ocicats are gentle, playful, and don’t mind being carried around the house. If you pay close attention to each hair, you’ll notice individual bands of color, except for the tail tip. Moreover, similarly to Abyssinians, Ocicats have agouti fur. They have a distinctive short spotted coat that comes in 12 colors, all of which have dark spots on a light background. Unlike other striped cat breeds, it’s easy to recognize the Ocicat. They’re also easy to train, and people often say that they have a dog-like personality.
That’s a tabby pattern in which each hair has bands of color.Ībyssinians are one of the oldest brees and one of the most intelligent cats. The Abyssinian might not seem like a tabby at first, but that’s because you’re not looking closely at their fur.Ībyssinians are famous for their agouti (ticked) hair.
