This is Charlie, my daughter's handsome cat, all grown up. His baby photos are in my gallery and on my daughter's walls.
People sometimes call the average domestic cat a Tabby, but tabby is not a cat breed -- it is actually the pattern of kitty's coat. And it happens to be the most common of all the feline coat patterns.
Charlie is a Patched Tabby.
This is the term used to describe a tortoiseshell (also called tortie) tabby. In the typical form, there are separate patches of brown tabby and red tabby on the same animal.
A tortie who also carries the tabby gene is often called a torbie. Patched tabbies can show any one of the above four distinct tabby patterns.
All tabbies have thin pencil lines on their faces, expressive markings around the eyes, and a distinct letter "M" on their foreheads. Some believe the "M" is for Mau, the word for "cat" in ancient Egypt.
