Hi fellow cat lovers! 
I picked out my cat last year from a shetfer. The littermates were one reg Tortieshell and two black ones. She was the odd girl out. Her Mom must of had calico in her genes. At first we thought she was going to look like tortie point with cream/white on her body. But no, she is something else. lol She started getting darker and grew patterns on her legs and got a brow bar! Her body is now has white/greyish "smeard"spots I call them. Her fur is soft and fine and silky and long. She has orange on some of her paws and on her face. Her Black areas keep getting darker and darker. One side of her body is darker then the other side, like its tipped more heavy on black like the R side of her face, her R leg and her R hind leg as compared to other half. Yes she is a mix but I have never seen her coat color before. She has icy blue eyes and is about year old now. I had a friend over last week who commented that she was "ugly looking". Knowing she was not a cat person I just smiled. I love her to death. Mostly wondering what a person would call her. "Smeared tortie point"? lol Here are some pics.
