I told you, NO!
- Tabby to Boyfriend in Poppy has a TWIN Sister!?
Tabby Lynx[1] is a singer that appears in Fazbear & Friends.
Appearance[]
Tabby is a slim taffy pink tabby cat animatronic with blush pink patches, lime green eyes, dark pink cheek blushes and a dark pink nose. She has thick black eyelashes and eyebrows, black nose freckles, and is donned with three light blue tufts of hair flowing right, as well as additional fluff on the sides of her cheeks. Though she typically has a set of human teeth, her teeth switch to a single fang on the right of her mouth.
She wears a star earring on her left ear, and two gold bracelets on each wrist, as well as a gold string necklace reading "MEOW", along with a baby blue denim jacket and shorts, and a pair of boots.
Personality[]
Tabby is portrayed as being cowardly, due to her unwillingness to participate in a rap battle against Boyfriend at his request, as her first response was to immediately dash into Playtime Co. in order to use it as a hideout. She is also shy and timid, being insistent on her desire not to do so for reasons that are seemingly more based on her dignity than her simply not wanting to participate in a rap battle for the sake of avoiding the occasion. However, she seemingly isn't intentionally antagonistic towards anyone because of her cowardice, as Bron decided to help her with this by cutting Boyfriend off from her. Her passiveness is further evidenced in that no one, so far, seems to hold anything against her, most understanding that she is innocent and well-intentioned; that is, aside from Circus Baby, of whom holds something against her due to Tabby unwittingly taking away others' attention towards her.
In "WHAT UP!", it is revealed that she is also a pop artist with an upbeat and energetic image, something that she seemingly takes pride in being as she lures in a crowd of people to join in with her. Due to this, she unintentionally enables Circus Baby to envy her due to her taking the attention away from her, though it's unknown if she is concerned that this is how Baby perceives her. The portrayal of their relationship in thumbnails indicates that she is unsympathetic about taking attention away from Baby, but due to the frequent and notorious use of clickbait among the show's creators, it is unknown if this is how she truly thinks of her.

Animatronics[]
Circus Baby: During "WHAT UP!", Baby demonstrates considerable envy towards Tabby the moment after she drags the rest of the Funtime animatronics along with her due to her upbeat demeanor. Thumbnails indicate that she acknowledges this and revels in averting public attention from Circus Baby, but EnchantedMob being prone to clickbait warrants that this may not be the case and she is unaware of how she is unintentionally damaging Circus Baby's confidence.
Fazbear Gang: Besides the remainder of the cast, humans included, Tabby is seemingly on good terms with the Fazbear Gang (Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie the Bunny, Chica the Chicken, Foxy the Pirate Fox), as they are willing to join in with her and the rest of the cast without Tabby simply offering them to by herself. However, it is unknown if this is due to her influence, or they have interacted with her before and found her to be a worthy ally.
Others[]
Bron & Boyfriend: For an unknown reason, Tabby and Bron are seemingly on good terms with each other, the former tolerating the latter's mischievous attitude as she immediately consoles in him in order to counter Boyfriend's advancements towards her in a request for a rap battle, something of which she denies constantly from him multiple times up to the point of meeting with Bron again, as evidenced in her aggressive "I told you!"
