How do you tell if your cat is really a calico and really male we think we may have a kitten from him?
A fertile male calico or tortoiseshell is very rare. Tortoiseshells are identified by the presence of orange in their fur. Calicos are the same, but have a large amount of white which makes the fur patched rather than mottled. If your calico male has mated with a female, it does not necessarily mean he is fertile. If the female becomes pregnant and there is absolutely no way of her having mated with a cat besides your male calico, then he must be fertile. Bear in mind that breeding a calico male does not increase the chances of getting male calico kittens.
What are some examples of rare calico cat colors?

Actually, they're not. Male Calicos are very rare - only about 1 in 300 Calico kittens are male - but they do exist. Unfortunately, a sex-linked genetic disorder kills most male Calicos when they're just kittens, so adult male Calicos are extremely rare and are considered valuable.
Is a male tabby cat with white and orange spots still considered calico if so is he rare and could he possibly have Klinefelter's syndrome?
No, it does not have Klinefelter's syndrome. it is just a mix-breed cat, otherwise known as a mutt for cats. It is a tabby/calico mix-breed. It is not rare and it is not a disease. it is just an unusual color pattern found on a tabby/calico mix. So don't be worried your cat is perfectly fine. I hope this helped.
