Cali Moon Cushion

Calico cats are domestic cats with a spotted or parti-coloured coat that is predominantly white, with patches of two other colours (often the two other colours are orange tabby and black). Outside of North America the pattern is more usually called tortoiseshell-and-white. In the province of Quebec, they are sometimes called chatte d'Espagne (French for '(female) cat of Spain'). Other names include tricolor cat, mi-ke (Japanese for 'triple fur') and lapjeskat (Dutch for 'patches cat'); calicoes with diluted coloration have been called calimanco or clouded tiger. Occasionally, the tri-colour calico coloration is combined with a tabby patterning. This calico patched tabby is called a caliby.
