Hi
It could be different in Australia but I wouldnt think greatly - Zack is black silver classic tabby and does not have much tabby marking on his body - only one judge has mentioned it and then followed that up by saying " oh thats right- the body markings are not a standard requirement". I think it is important that the face markings are correct - M on the forehead etc. Of course I could be wrong as I am also relatively new to this and only started this year but Zack has been getting in the top 5 and has been reserve in group 3 times so it cant be too bad
