Tabby Bee

Tabby Bee is a Colorless Event bee that hatches out of a Tabby Bee egg, which is currently available in the Ticket Tent for 500 Tickets.
Like all other Event bees, this bee does not have a favorite Treat, and the only way to make it gifted is by feeding it a Star Treat or Gingerbread Bears.
Tabby Bee likes the Spider Field and Clover Field. It dislikes the Cactus Field.

== Trivia ==
* When Tabby Bee was added, the maximum tabby love stack was mistakenly set to 500. This mistake was fixed in a later update.
* The price of Tabby Bee was 250 tickets when it was originally released.
* There used to be an Easter Egg behind the hives, which was a block with a distorted photo of Tabby Bee on it. It was removed around 2 June 2018. This was possibly a hint for one of the codes, more specifically, "Meow", which gave five tickets before it expired.
* Tabby Bee is one of three bees to have an official plush on the Official Bee Swarm Simulator Website, the others being Basic Bee and Vicious Bee.
* Because of a timer glitch that stopped players from buying it early, Tabby Bee returned on sale between June 2 and June 6, 2018.
* Tabby Bee was the third Event bee to be added to the game, after Photon Bee and Bear Bee respectively.
* This bee, Bear Bee, Gummy Bee, Puppy Bee, Festive Bee, and Windy Bee are the only Event bees which can be a first edition bee when hatching them during its first release in-game.
* Tabby Bee, Bear Bee, Gummy Bee, Festive Bee, and Photon Bee are the only bees to have a gifted bonus that affects its signature ability.
* The player’s tabby love stack will not be removed if the player transforms Tabby Bee in any way.
* Before the May 23, 2024 update, if the player already had max Tabby Love stacks and collected another one, it would neither increase the existing buff nor have any effect.
* Tabby Bee is a reference to Onett's real-life cat named Sam. This is hinted in one of Onett's dialogues in his star journey quests, and later confirmed on Discord.
* Tabby Bee, along with Basic Bee and Rascal Bee, are Onett's favorite bees.
* Tabby Bee is mentioned in Panda Bear's dialogue during his Ultimate Ant Annihilation 1 quest. Like Tabby Bee's description, he said that Tabby Bee was raised by cats.
* Tabby Bee is one of the few bees based off from animals other than just bees, the others being Lion Bee, Tadpole Bee, Puppy Bee, and Bear Bee.
*Tabby Bee, despite having a 50% energy increase compared to Basic bee listed in its stats, has a base energy of 28, which is only comparable to a 40% energy increase.
* This was one of the few bees that could have been summoned from Onett's Lid Art.
** If a Tabby Bee from Onett's Lid Art produced a tabby love token, the buff would not be removed after the Tabby Bee despawns.
