I love calicoes and torties

. I love their unique coloration and how beautiful yet different each and every single one is. I'd love to have a calico, but I'm at my kitty limit now so I'll live vicariously through you all in this thread. And, besides, I have my beautiful tortie to show off

.
Here is my pretty girl, Emory:
I wish I had a pic of one of my first kitties -- Mocha. She was a tortie that we found living under our front porch with her two tuxie brothers. She now lives with my father in Pennsylvania and is still going strong at almost 21 years old. Other than arthritis and gingivitis (she had a bunch of teeth pulled last year) she is doing well and still as feisty and full of tortie-tude as ever! Her markings aren't as pronounces as Emory's, but she's still a beauty and has the most beautiful eyes.
I hope the photos keep coming because I love me some calicoes and torties
