Our Torti cat is our fourth cat and when I got her I thought I was officially becoming a “cat lady”! I had no idea about this variety and when I chatted with a guy at work who had four cats, one being a Torti, he said it was the coolest of all!

From my research online, it appears they like water. Jasmine, our Torti, is obsessed with running water. When we brush teeth, take showers, etc. she is right there! My husband calls her his "Torti ankle towel" as she rubs up against his legs after he comes out of the shower. Another funny thing, not sure if this is Torti specific, is Jasmine is a funny talker. She rarely meows like a normal cat, she talks with choppy meow sounds! It is really funny. She really talks loud when she is batting a sparkle ball around the house too!

Jasmine seems to be more of a MaMa's girl. She does love her Daddy too, but in my opinion, the comments about the men thing seems to fall in line with my theory about cats as a whole. It is important for every person in a home to talk with, give eye contact, gently touch & play with the cat. If you respectfully engage with any animal, they know this and will respond with affection. As well, we are very careful to watch visitors to our home too. We do not want a negative interaction to push them away from people. Overall, a great treat the Torti is to our family!
