Yes he is. Look at those beautiful, bright eyes. I wonder how many people have asked about adopting him?Originally Posted by Rosiemac

What a sweetheart! He'll get adopted in 2 shakes of a cat's tail (as they say in England!)!
Two of my girls are what I call "Tabbicoes"--tabby and calico mix--rather strange patterning--but they're cute as buttons.

It's very odd seeing a male kitten face looking out of a torbie coat.
He's cute, though, and with his rarity he probably already has a home with either someone doing the story or at the shelter.
Are male torbies sterile like male calicos?
He IS adorable!
Edit: Nevermind! I guess reading the story helps!

^LOL If he wasn't he certainly is now! Even though he could have been sterile, leaving him intact could cause some of the same behavioral problems in other intact males.
No one wants a kitty that will spray, so better safe than sorry.
He is a little cutie
But I'm sure if he had been shorthair instead of long, they would have noticed it quickly he was a male. Having long hair hid what was obvious.
Hope he gets a good home.
To kscatlady above - not EVERY male tortie/calico is sterile (the majority are). Friend of mine has 3 male calico Cornish Rex breeding males - all of them now have sired kittens. We were not sure if the bluecream & white male was, but he did sire 2 litters.
Hope he gets a good home.

wow, I saw a blurb of the story somewhere and was very skeptical, not having seen the pic, but there's no mistaking those colors! Very cool
what a cutie
That boy is just adorable!!
