Traits

Ticked (TT or Tt) is a dominant gene that overrides any Tabby pattern with Ticking, usually presented as fine speckling on the main body. Face markings remain untouched, and some striping may still occur on the neck, legs, and tail.

Heterozygous Ticked (Tt) may optionally "mask" less of the the Tabby pattern underneath it.

Examples:

• McMcTt: (Het) Ticked Mackerel Tabby
• mcmcTt: (Het) Ticked Classic Tabby
