What a beautiful Tortie! As you will soon find out they are known as Naughty Torties and will bring you years of joy. They will also be the Alpha cat - it is their nature. We just lost our 13 year old Tortie - Mash(cat of the day 12/1/10). She had a wonderful life, was a trickster, talked all day long and always got her way. I'll have a lifetime of fond memories of my special Little Girl. I hope Mavis brings you a lifetime of joy & Tortitude!
