    I think she might be a WHITE tortie!!! Our Miss BooBoo Kitty was similar in colour!!! I showed her photo to a Cat Show judge, for years I thought she was a calico, but was told she was a white tortie!!! Your girl is a beauty!!!

    A white tortie? Do you mean a tortoiseshell with white? Her colors aren't intermixed though, and by definition from that picture she still looks like a Calico to me, just more predominantly black and white than red.

    EDIT: Ah, she may be a tortoise-shell calico with white now that I take a second look.

    It's just really hard to tell from a pic of her on her back. Do you have any side views?

    Well according to Cat Fancy Association I am positive her coat is a Diluted Calico also called Muted or Pastel Calico. Sometimes you will find a cat half way between a Tortie and Calico. Torties or just very blended looking as Calicos tend to be more patches and blothches. The diluted ones are gray and tan or fawn rather than black and dark oranges. I love Calicos and Torties I want a long hair one since their my favorite. By the way Nikkita is a doll.

    Naw, she doesn't look dilute at all; dilutes are grey and cream, not black and orange

    Regardless I think it will be mush easier with a better photo.

    EDIT: On my monitor, she looks black and orange; but I can see how some could think it's dilute, so it could be my monitor playing with the colors, but to me its being displayed at black and orange.

    Thank you for all that information, yes i did think she was some kind of tortie girl, but mum is a calico,maybe she is a cross between the two, here are some other pics, see what you think, oh i know she is a doll, purrsonality wise as well believe me she is the best kitty ever,btw we call them moggies down under, your feline equivalent to the mutt,yes i knew she was a moggy.

    The last pic is a close up of her mother, so you can compare.

    Still hard to tell from the pics because of the flash whether she is black and orange or grey and cream, can you confirm? Regardless she is a tortie with white (or dilute tortie with white if she is cream and grey).

    Mama looks like she may be a tortie with white, also

    she is more black with orange, although i would not call it orange, mum is orange, she is more caramel -beige colour and she does have some grey in her too, but more black, but she is not orange really, mum is bright orange in comparison , oh i was sure mum was a calico from pics just like her on PT, but hey i don't really know that is why i am asking.

    Carole,

    She is beautiful!! She's definitely a Calico. Torties are mostly black and brown with maybe a splotch of white (Mollie Rose's "splotch" is on her belly).

    If you look in my siggy, you'll see Shortie, who is a calico Munchkin.

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02
    Mollie Rose, you were there for me through good times and in bad, from the beginning.Your passing will leave a hole in my heart.We will be together "One Fine Day". 1994-2009
    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

    DO NOT BUY WHILE SHELTER ANIMALS DIE!!
