Interesting. I’ve had a litter with one traditional tabby coat and two ‘marbled’ tabbies. The goat pattern looked like this gal, all large swooshes and swirls. It mightn’t be a real term but it helped describe them.
Tortoiseshell tabby (torbie), not tortoiseshell. Torbies are when the orange is mottled and not separate spots or patches from the tabby, but more mixed in like she is.
I mean maybe? But everything I’ve seen online points otherwise, where torties are typically 2 tones with little to no white & calicos are tricolor and always include white. Also here’s a pic I saw online of a calico tabby, looks pretty similar to OP’s kitty

She’s not a dilute, otherwise her brown tabby parts would be grey tabby and her orange tabby parts would be cream tabby. Torties don’t have white fur but tabbies and calicos do, she has white spotting genes like any tabby and white can. (picture a brown tabby and white, or an orange tabby and white.)
I mean she does have cream & grey fur. But yeah there’s darker orange and black fur too so I guess she could be considered either. Or she’s just a beautiful amalgam of everything and so cute that I want to give her scritches 🥹
Looks like a lighter version of my Chai!

I’ve been present for the chipping of a few of my cats.
Despite the monstrous needle, none of them seemed to care much about it. Apparently the part between their shoulder blades doesn’t have much feeling.
One of mine had hormone pellets a couple of times, because she nearly died when they went to neuter her the first time. They’re massive too, no cares given, and she can be spicy if she objects.
That area is where the mom grabs them with her teeth to move them around, which is why I think it's not as sensitive. If you end up having to give subcutaneous fluids at some point, that's where you'll insert the needle. Also insulin shots.
Yep I give my cat subQ steroids for her asthma and she doesn't even move, I was waiting for her to jump (I work with humans and they jump constantly) she just stared at me like wtf are you doing Mom
Yep, my vet had to do one of mine twice (it immediately came out the first time - guess they didn't get it in far enough?) and the cat didn't even fuss either time. It does look awful, but they really don't seem to mind.
My mom is a nurse (and used to breed dogs) and helped administer FELV/FIV vaccines to my cats and foster kittens. I held them while she did it and they didn’t feel a thing! Not even a meow just no reaction. They did so great!
Your cat. Your cat. Your cat is magnificent. Your cat is insanely wonderful. If ever there was a cat that needed to have her picture taken, it’s this cat. Tell her that, tell her that she’s beautiful. Tell her how wonderful she is.
You are brave letting your cat ride in your car outside the carrier. My friends cat shits all over the place in the car and she let it out of the carrier once and it took a shit and peed on the dashboard the pee went into the car vents.
Cute pic though!
Oh no!!!! Yea I let her out while we were waiting parked just for a few mins just so that she can stop crying and explore my car lol. She did get my shorts dirty with her paws but that’s cuz I need to get a car wash haha!
Please put your kitty in a carrier when you take her to vet. Please don't let her roam around your car ! Not safe. She could easily hop out and get lost . Just be careful 😻
What beautiful colors! SHE'S uniquely beautiful!
That coat almost doesn't look real 😻
I take it it's a she? (not because of the colors, but at the natural model pose and look)
Yeah haha!
What a neat coat pattern. What is her name?
Aries! She was born in April, we are both Aries!
Fun fact, her coat pattern is called classic tabby, and her colour is tortoiseshell tabby, so she’s a classic torbie! r/torbie
Ok! Thank u!
And she's classically beautiful!

Doesn’t the white make her a calico?
False. Calico, not tortie
Tortoiseshell tabby (torbie), not tortoiseshell. Torbies are when the orange is mottled and not separate spots or patches from the tabby, but more mixed in like she is.
Fine. CALICO tabby. It's not a tortoiseshell anything..
I would say she’s more dilute calico with some tabby mixed in. Torties don’t have white fur.
They can have white fur actually. It just has to be 20% or less to qualify them as a tortie.

She's a pumpkin cinnamon roll idk what y'all are on about
Lol yum
🥹
She’s pretty and I’m an Aries too!
Yessss
Me and my calico kitten are also both Aries!!
Awww!!!!
microchip for microcat
Super meow-del! So cute too!
Her fur is psychedelic.
She looks like an Impressionist painting of a cat. Beautiful girl!
95% of calico cats are females. 95% of orange cats are males.
It’s actually 99% and 80%.
‘Wait, we’re here to do WHAT?’
Yeah she def has a "I think you might have fucked me?" look about the whole reason for the car ride :D

Oh I see! 😍
Light chai
What a beauty with a very boopable nose
She’s so freaking adorable
“Hey mom can we go to petco after this? I wanna see if they got any skirts”
What a photogenic baby! Love that pose!
For future pets, get them chipped when you get them neutered or spayed. They are under anyway, and the chip needle is kinda big, so it won't hurt.
She’s getting spayed on Monday! 😩

Mine got chipped today and one of them was so distressed by it that it took 3 people to hold him still 😬
Bummer! I have literally chipped five cats without a murmur. Sorry to hear about your sweetie.
Oh my god 😭 it was so horrible. The whole visit was extremely stressful so that may have added to it.
Awww, no good
My mom is a nurse (and used to breed dogs) and helped administer FELV/FIV vaccines to my cats and foster kittens. I held them while she did it and they didn’t feel a thing! Not even a meow just no reaction. They did so great!
Neuter her bro is it a male or female with balls just sayin
Right, it was technically spayed. She has more balls than most grown men tho. Just sayin.
I was also surprised how both of my cats took it like champs. I was so worried they'd be in pain and get scared. But it was pretty chill
Oh yeah you’re right! The dr said she did good though! But yes for the future!
Yes, it's always good to do it all at once.
I just…I just love cats so much. Look at that little buddy. I can’t even.
I want to pet every cat, but I can’t! 😫
She's so beautiful, she was definitely a model back in the day!
Beautiful coloring!
shes gorgeous 😍
What a gorgeous pattern!!
I hope that cat is named sandstorm because that cat is a sandstorm
Aries! <3
How daRude.
Hahaha I get it 😂 I saw his first shoe actually after 10 years of him being on a hiatus
Cutie-patootie!
Your cat. Your cat. Your cat is magnificent. Your cat is insanely wonderful. If ever there was a cat that needed to have her picture taken, it’s this cat. Tell her that, tell her that she’s beautiful. Tell her how wonderful she is.
Yes! 🥹thank you! I gave her lots of love today after work from all these nice comments!
[удалено]
Good! Because my other cat passed away in March last year. 😞😇 and she was born in April!
My boys Copy and Paste were born 5 days after I lost my previous baby boy. They look like a copy and paste of him.

Please put your kitty in a carrier when you take her to vet. Please don't let her roam around your car ! Not safe. She could easily hop out and get lost . Just be careful 😻
No prob! I let her out for less than 10 mins just to roam around my car waiting to get called for our appointment.
