Calicos for Sale & Adoption
If you've owned cats for some time, you most likely know what a Calico is. It's a type of cat that's got very distinctive orange and black spots usually mixed in with some white fur. In general, the white fur takes precedence and covers approximately one quarter to three quarters of the body. This type of cat is actually the Maryland state cat. Now there's some trivia for you. If you've ever had a conversation about Calicos, you almost certainly have heard that all of these cats are female. This is true, except under a very rare genetic disorder. This type of cat is often confused with the somewhat similar looking Tortoiseshell, but make no mistake, these two cats are completely distinct. Calico cats have been considered lucky through the ages. It's not certain how this superstition began. Also, the Calico is a "type" of cat, not a breed of cat. The marking on this cat type can actually be found on other breeds, such as American Shorthair, Persian, Maine Coon, and Cornish Rex. And the coat needn't always be white, orange, and black. It is sometimes colored cream, bluish-black, red, and chocolate brown.
