Those kitties are just gorgeous and so very realistic! My friend has the a grey one, but as said below, the do come in diffferent colors. If you are making it for a cat owner who has a tabby, stitch it in her cat's colors! I figured out long ago that people only buy/like their breed/colors.

Beautiful, both of them...I guess it's a matter of personal preference. I like both, so maybe I'm easy to please.-lol

Hi
It depends on the cat. You get cats looking like the top one, and cats looking like the bottom one.. I had both types. My current one is more like the bottom one, but my cat I still cry about (and he died 8 years ago, his picture is still in my purse) was more like the top one.
So, choose the one you like the best!
Regards.

Thank you, some pets are slightly more special than others for a variety of reasons

Hi, yes. He helped me through the period where I was told I have 2 incurable diseases that will put eventually put me in a wheelchair, a very bad divorce and then cancer. He used to lick my tears away and cuddled me when I was sleepless - any time of the day or night! And he was always happy to see me. I bought him for my son, but he decided almost immediately he was mine. And he was extremely possessive of me. And jealous! I could not give attention to any other animal if he was there. If I did, he would just walk away. And he had the most gorgeous huge green eyes, and beautiful marks. He was a ginger cat. I miss him... Anneliese

Boy, you really hit the nail on the head with your thread choices! They sure look just like the cats I know. The kitties have such a nice soft glow about them. Well done!

Most of ours right now are tabbies.....they range from browns, black, white, gray and silver.......all but the silver ones have reddish undertones...so I would say both are true to colors and they look fabulous!

They are lovely, both cats are realistic, if you have a cat book anywhere, you can do any other colours as well, even make a black, white and different shades of grey. Hugs Maureen

like the others already mentioned, both colours are correct, but personally I like the grey one the most, here you see most in that colour . The design is great.

You can get tabby cats in grey, brown, ginger and tortoiseshell. From the two you have shown the 2nd one is more common, although I would change the tan/light brown color to a light or medium grey.

You have done a wonderful job stitching the two cats. Venetia

I am not a expert but to me the image of a orange striped cat comes to mind. Now when I google images of Tabby both are correct. Whatever you did a great job stitching the design.
