Cats with the Tabby coat pattern are incredibly common. The majority of moggies have some variation of the Tabby pattern, so it is safe to say there are far more Tabby cats than tigers in the world.

What does a brindle cat look like?
Striped has a stripe tabby pattern (as opposed to spotted tabby or whorl tabby). It's a type of marking. Brindle is another word for Tortoiseshell pattern. It's a color pattern with both red type and blue type patches mixed in in a random pattern without clear boundaries. Might look like a calico without any white. A cat can be tabby and tortoiseshell at the same time. That's called a Torbie. It's where the color is in a tortie pattern with tabby markings over it.

How do you know if your cat is a calico or a tortoiseshell?
A tabby has stripes on its forehead usually that look sort of like an M. Look at pics closely and you can see it!! :) That's my own way of telling its either all tabby or part tabby. A tortishell cat has not patches but brindled brown and black fur. A Calico which people confuse for Tortishells has Brown , Black and white fur that's patched. :) --- A normal tabby cat has no ginger in its fur, which is the definition of a tortoiseshell. Cats can also be torbies, which is a tortoiseshell-tabby. In this pattern, the cat has ginger patches, and you will see tabby markings on the face and body where there is no ginger. In a tortoiseshell, the ginger patches always have tabby markings whether the cat is a tabby or not.
