Tabby Love: Adopt a Stripe of Happiness

Tabby cats are celebrated for being loving, playful, affectionate, smart and adaptable. They are known for forming strong bonds with their human family members, making them entertaining and engaging companions.  Your tabby will love nothing more than a game of “hunt” toys or chasing objects around the house – on their own or with you!  People often describe Tabby Cats as being super intelligent, and able to recognise and adapt to household routines with ease. Some have even been known to solve problems or learn tricks!

Tabby cats have unique coat patterns with stripes, swirls, spots, or intriguing combinations thereof. Their coats can be short, medium or long, and they range in colour from light greys and creams to vibrant oranges and deep browns. The “classic” tabby has bold, dark stripes and swirls set against a lighter backdrop. Variations include the “mackerel” tabby (slender, parallel stripes tracing the cat’s form) or the “spotted” tabby (spots replace the customary stripes).
