    Calicos..a question

    Curious. Can calico's be males? This is probably a stupid question, but I've thought about it and I know/have seen a lot of calicos, all which are females..so I'm just wondering if thats how it works..??

    Hm..

    "All tortoiseshell and tortoiseshell and white (Calico) cats are female."

    I guess that answers my question then lol. Thanks Kay

    We have a male calico, but this is very rare! Usually calicos & torties are female.
    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

    Before my RB Goldie died, I didn't know that female orangies were rare -- I just thought I had a very beautiful, loving, fluffy gal. When she died and I went looking for another orangie gal, I discovered how fortunate I had been for the past 14+ years and what a rare kitty she was. Now I have my big orange dude, Mishi, and my mini calico-tortie gal, Mitzi. Love them both
