The eyes, as before, are copper, orange, or deep gold. Classic Tabby In the British Tabbies the markings show up clearly on the short coat. The classic tabby pattern has distinctive "butterfly" markings on the shoulders and "oysters" on the flanks. In all except the Black Silver Tabbies, the eye colour is copper, orange or deep gold.
