The tabby coat colour on cat can be incredibly varied! The "Tabby" term means dark markings (stripes, swirls, spots) on a paler background. The stripe colour is solid (goes right to the hair root), but the background colour is banded with colour on each individual hair.

Silver Tabby

Silver (grey) Tabby - Silver base, black markings. Silver Tabbies with coloured markings on a silvery background are called Blue Silver, Red Silver (aka Cameo Tabby) etc.

Brown Tabby

Brown Tabby - Coppery-brown base, black/dark brown markings.
