Cats
As previously mentioned, cats with good and correct
markings are highly valued.
THE TYPICAL RANGE OF BICOLOUR PATTERNS
Piebald cats are extremely common and varied in appearance. The white spotting can occur
with any colour/pattern and varies from minimal white through to almost all white. The
smallest amount of white may be no more than a white locket and a small white belly patch,
each no more than a few white hairs. Though this pattern doesn't have a descriptive namem
the term "locket cat" has been suggested. The image at the top of this page and the
description below is a typical progression through the different grades of piebald. Due to
developmental effects at the embryo stage, there are further variations on this general theme!
Tuxedo Pattern White facial markings
At one end of the scale is the white locket, followed by the familiar tuxedo pattern where the
belly is largely white
