brown tabby

Striped domestic cat

A brown tabby is a cat with a coat pattern of dark stripes, swirls, or spots against a warm brown or tan background.

The tabby pattern—one of the most common in domestic cats—appears in several variations: classic (swirled), mackerel (striped), spotted, and ticked.

Brown tabbies typically have an "M" marking on the forehead.

Our brown tabby loves to sun himself on the porch.
