My Spaz used to be that color, but got more red with age

i agree - coloration is identical to my RB cat Medley [she was a shorthair, tho].

Nope, my Ginger is nothing but fur and bones - she eats like a bird, no matter how I try to fatten her up!

Weight has nothing to do with coloring, and torties (or patched tabbies) aren't a breed, just a coloration.

It's what they eat that makes them chubby. Rosie and Sophie are like that and that's why i make sure they get some exercise with the laser pen to keep them as they are

I like "larger" cats.... I don't like the feel of bones..... by the sounds of things, you may feel similiar.

Look into Ragdolls, Maine Coons for large cats...... check out the mixed cats, my first kitty Gysmo was a former barn kitten.... He was a big boy with long fur.... quite solid, and his only fat was the droop from his neuter.
