No, they are not color blind, regardless of coat colour (Calico is a coat colour, not a breed). It is now thought that all cats can see in limited colour.

Cats seem to be able to distinguish between higher frequency colors, meaning cats respond to the colors purple, blue, green and possibly yellow range. Red, orange and brown colors appear to fall outside a cat's color range and are most likely seen as shades of grey or purple.

Purple, blue and green appear to be the strongest colors perceived by cats. Tests suggest cats can distinguish between more shades or levels of gray than can humans.

other colors are most likely seen as shades of gray by cats.
