Foster's Coat

Hi all!

I hope I'm posting this in the correct place. I would like some help describing my foster's coat. She's orange and black with a little bit of cream under her chin and has some tabby markings. What would be the correct way to describe her color/markings?

Here are a couple of photos:

She looks a little like my Cali, except Cali's tabby markings on her body are more pronounced. I've been told that she's a brown patched tabby, or torbie.

Goldy is right - she would be a brown patched tabby but a "reverse" one - where the red is more dominate in color then the brown is. Kinda like a blue-cream where you have more patches of cream then blue.

Keep in mind that with bicolors you can have varying amounts of white to black and still would be a black & white bicolor cat

Still is the same colors involved, so it would still be called the same.

Thank you so much for the replies. Your description is so much nicer than mine.
Her coat is really an amazing shade of red, I think she's gorgeous.

I want to get her into another foster home or an adoption kennel quickly because I think she'll wind up being another foster failure if she's with us for very long.

And that would be a problem............????????
