Tabby kittens are young domestic cats, typically between a few weeks and a year old, displaying the distinctive striped or spotted coat pattern called tabby marking. These markings come in several types—mackerel, classic, and spotted—and serve as camouflage in their wild ancestors. Kittens are born with their eyes closed and are highly playful and curious as they develop, making them beloved household pets and frequent subjects of art and craft.
