Tabby can be uneven and unsymmetrical, whilst featuring swirls, hooks and 'triangles'.
Small sections can also be cut away to add to the uneven feel.
No!
No!
Tabby cannot be lighter than the base, or have small spots surrounding it (Unless the Spots gene is present).
Tabby also cannot make circles such as the above, or 'targets'.
Tabby can also be nuanced! This is when the marking is slightly erased to show the color that's beneath. It should be subtle, and should not change how the marking appears, or make it look like another marking entirely!
