I didn't realize until a few days ago that the dilute calico was slightly rare. When our cat gave birth one of her kittens was a dilute calico, and she's been my best friend her whole life :p







I wish I had a better camera to show off how adorable my fluff ball is!

This is her and her calico mother who is currently in long-term hiding in my basement:

Your cats actually look like torti's then calicos arthorn!
I thinkyou have a dilute and non dillute tortico
See how there fur is more brinddled then it is solid blocks
Of color, you deff have your self a couple of tortico cats
And I can tell by there photos there not lacking any torti-tude!
Thats for sure, just in case your confused the white fur with
There black and orange coat which screams CALICO!
Tortico cats a known formally as torti and white cats can have that beautiful
Black and orange brinddled coat abd some white markings which can throw
Anyone off, lol but calico cats are usually white cats with blocks
Of black abd orange fur you can never really tell what or where those
Patches will be but I can tell you one thing I know they will be BEAUTIFUL!!
Your cats are very cute love the picture of then together!!
Abd what are there names? There to adorable

The two in the picture are gatogato (the non dilute one), and Lute (or tooters, or toopsies or whatever I feel like calling her at that moment, the dilute one.) gatogato has the tortitude for sure, but lute is very timid and frightened of everything/everyone. :p

And these are two of the new rescues I have... bottle babies I saved from being given away for free on Craigslist at 1 week old!! Ugh. The nerve of some people!!

Irene is a dilute torbie!



And Anastasia, who is a dilute torbie with white! She's already spoken for by a good friend :-)



And this is Ivy. She was found by my step-sister outside of her house, covered in fleas and begging for food. Her coloring is gorgeous, she has the classic tabby pattern in an almost silver and black coloring, with splotches of cream throughout her coat!

As always clynn thanks for saving our precious calico/torti babies
Your heart is as big as your furry family, there all as beautiful as can
Be. And thanks for your kind words on buster, my heart is broken :(
:vibes: :vibes:

Fidget boo is beautiful! Love her coloring, such a pretty kitty
:vibes: :vibes:

UPDATE: as I was attempting to place flowers at Busters grave I looked
Across the street and saw a cat I ran over to see the cat and I was expecting
To have to get on my knees to look under the car cause most cats ob the street are either
Indoor/out door cats that are skittish or feral/strays. But to my amazement
As I walked around the side of the car she ran up started meowing and rubing my leg?
First thought this had to be someones cat....but as I bent down to touch her back
Only then I realized instead of a healthy kitty there standing in front of me
Was a bag of bones! Someone had broke her ribs (I'm guessing from being kicked)
And she was starving to DEATH!! I picked up the frail cat and brought her to my back yard to give
Her some food and water. The poor lil thing prickly hasn't eaten our drank anything
In about 2 weeks other then probably a dirty rain puddle. She drank the while bowl of water
I set out for her!! She obviously wasn't a hunter type like my Buster boy was
He was very capable of surviving on his own, but she wasn't. I took her in
And named her tiger lilly (lily kitty for short) shes a beautiful torbie
I beleave shes got some egyptian mau in her cause her walk seems to be on tip toe
And her beautiful facial features, shes a very loving and sweet cat she loves to be petted
And snuggled and has a very chirping meow she isn't afraid to use!
I honestly beleave Buster boy lead her to me cause I have never seen her before around where I live
And no one is claiming her which makes me mad.how could someone do such horrible things
To such a sweet and beautiful cat. I kno buster saw my broken heart from loosing him
And lead her to me, but even thoe buster wil never be replaced, I will take care of this beautiful lil
Girl like I did with him. RIP buster I love you

I will post pictures soon shes beautiful.

Perhaps Buster left a message for a hungry neighborhood cat on his way to heaven--"Hey, I have to go; but check out this really cool human! She'll give you food, guaranteed!" And so you have another cat.

They always seem to know when you're a cat person, don't they?

Our beautiful dilute tortie, Emily.  She was our first cat, before we knew anything much about cats.  All we knew to call her was a "gray cat."  But "blue-cream dilute tortoiseshell" sounds so much prettier.
