The History of Tabby Cats

Tabby cats do not come from any particular breed. Rather than the breed, ‘tabby’ refers to cats that have a swirly, stripy, and/or spotty coat. They can come in almost any color, or combination of colors. However, to be a tabby they must have at least one of these 3 coat patterns! You’ll find tabbies to be very vocal, intelligent, affectionate, and really playful. This means choosing them the right toy if they are going to be at home alone is really important! If you have other cats, you’ll soon have lots of fun watching them playing and grooming together too.
