Hi there...like any other domestic cat they require a diet rich in animal protein and taurine. Even pedigree cats require the same dietary needs as a calico cat. Exotic cats however require a diet which is more suitable for their order of carnivora species. Hi there...like any other domestic cat they require a diet rich in animal protein and taurine.

He looks like a calico i thinkhe's a tortoiseshell with yellow eyes. He's on the cover of Long ShadowsSol is a mottled, tall, stocky, well muscled, sleek, long-haired, dark, brown and bright, tortoiseshell tom with pale yellow eyes, a face that tapers at the muzzle, a curving tail bushed at the tip, large, wide spaced, tufted ears, and a broad head.- I got this from the warriors wiki, which is why it's so detailed.Maybe like this?;http://www.catfacts.org/tortoiseshell-and-calico-cat-facts.jpg
A tabby has stripes on its forehead usually that look sort of like an M. Look at pics closely and you can see it!! :) That's my own way of telling its either all tabby or part tabby. A tortishell cat has not patches but brindled brown and black fur. A Calico which people confuse for Tortishells has Brown , Black and white fur that's patched. :) --- A normal tabby cat has no ginger in its fur, which is the definition of a tortoiseshell. Cats can also be torbies, which is a tortoiseshell-tabby. In this pattern, the cat has ginger patches, and you will see tabby markings on the face and body where there is no ginger. In a tortoiseshell, the ginger patches always have tabby markings whether the cat is a tabby or not.
Cat food!!!! Tortoiseshell cats eat just the same as all other cats.
The tortoiseshell pattern is often made up with several colours such as black and red (orange), but can also include a mixture of brown, chocolate, cream, or cinnamon. The size of the patches can vary from a fine speckled or mottled pattern to large areas of colour. The colours and patterns widely vary from cat to cat. A calico cat is white with tortoiseshell-type patches of colour, typically black and red, although other colours can be present, also.
No, they are not always inbreed they are like every other living cat. --- Calico cats are simply the result of a ginger or tortoiseshell cat and a black or tortoiseshell cat. The only similarities is that both cats must have some white.
A calico and tortoiseshell cat can appear in the same breed. Neither type of cats refer to specific breed, instead speaks of a coat pattern found on a cat.
This pattern is called tortoiseshell. If it has a considerable amount of white, it is called calico.
