    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    This is my Calico, Zam.

    She can be quite... um.... witchy.

    This is my baby Mandy. I was told she is a dilute calico.

    That's what she is all right! She sure is a cutie! Our dilute is a male, and pretty rare!

    This is Peanut, my tortie on white. I always thought she was a calico until this was discussed on a different thread where I found out she is a tortie on white. I think the main difference is that calicos have big splotches of individual colors - and have a lot of white on them whereas a torties color is much more "blended" together and there is often no white on them.

    Yes, you're right! Peanut is absolutely gorgeous. I'm afraid if you lived closer I'd steal her!
