calicos and tortis

[L. Wayne]

That any tortie with tabby stripes I believe is known as a "torbie" Calicos have larger defined patches of brown, gray and/ or black color on them, on a white "background". Torties and Torbies, have mixed blotches of white, gray, and brown, on a black "background". Except for extremely rare occasions, all torbies, torties, and calicos are female.
