Spotted info

On the appropriate base colour is shown a clear pattern of numerous well defined round or oval “dark” spots with good contrast without ticked hairs (brindling). The spots are clearly separated from each  other and do not merge into each other. The more numerous the better. On each cat the spots should be of uniform shape, they are as important as the colour, they must harmonize with the base colour.

 

There is an intricate tabby “M” on the forehead, with markings extending up over the head between the ears and breaking into small spots on the lower neck and shoulders. Maskara markings are found around the eyes and on the cheeks. The eyes are rimmed with the darkest coat colour and surrounded by the lightest colour. Thumprints on the ears.

 

There are one or two broken necklaces on the chest. The spots should be spread on the shoulders and over the body down to the legs. A slight spine line is permitted. The stomach is covered by clearly defined spots. The legs are evenly ringed and/or spotted. The back of the feet is coloured in the “dark”colour. The tail is evenly ringed and ends in a solid tip.
