    Do you know your Cat Terms????

    I found a great website page that defines all the different cat terminology! I was always confused between torbie and tortie, now I know the difference!!!

    Finally found a picture of a torbie

    caption "Macka is a Torbie, which is a combination of Tabby and Tortoiseshell..."



    Although to this untrained eye, I don't notice many differences.
    Scott is owned by 5 cats: Jackson, Fluffy, Twidgit, Ashton, Lexi;
    and 3 dogs: Eli, Sassee, Ginger

    Well, Nutmeg is a tortie:


    But what is Tilly? Her background colour is mostly black but she has orange tabby stripes on her leg:
