Persian cat tabby patterns include classic, mackerel, marbled, spotted, and ticked (in two genetic forms), while other patterns include shaded, chinchilla, and two tabbie-tortie variations, golden, and grizzled.

The Exotic Shorthair sub-breed qualifies for every cat coat variation TICA recognizes. Eye colors range widely, and may include blue,
Chilean jack mackerel for Pacific jack mackerel. The Chilean jack mackerel looks very much like the greenback horse mackerel "(Trachurus declivis)" found around Australia and New Zealand.
