Description
"Gray and Orange Tortoiseshell Cat Thinking" by Catherine Sherman
A gray and orange cat ponders life. The coloring is that of a dilute tortoiseshell, also known as blue and cream, a pastel version of the orange and black tortoiseshell.
Tortoiseshell cats have coats with patches of various shades of red and black, as well as white. The size of the patches can vary from a fine speckled pattern to large areas of color. Typically, the more white a cat has, the more solid the patches of color. Dilution genes may modify the coloring, lightening the fur to a mix of cream and blue, lilac or fawn.The markings on tortoiseshell cats are usually asymmetrical.
