I'm so sorry for your loss of Cammie. She was a lovely cat. She had beautiful green eyes too. I know that she was so happy to have you in her life!

BooBoo--(early 1980s)

Archie-(late 80s) Found her in St.Louis as a kitten in a railyard and brought her home. Great cat who went missing about 4 years later. I always wonder if she went back west.
Cocoabean, our long haired Tortie. She may be a Torbie actually - she does have striping patterns when you look closely. This first photo is now in a book about Tortoiseshell cats by Ingrid King who runs a blog - The Conscious Cat.

Question:
Mocha's paperwork from the shelter says that she is a tortoiseshell mix. Would that make her a tortie or a torbie? How can I tell?

@junglecat, If she has some tabby-like patterns, she could be a torbie (tortoiseshell + tabby).
This is Delilah, a 5 year old van pattern calico!

"Mix" is used to say she is of mixed breeds - nothing specific.
Personally, I'd classify her as Calico due to the white patches but I think there is such a fine line of what is what with this coat pattern; plus people in different countries seem to call them different things.
Mocha has tabby markings so if calling her Tortoiseshell, she would then be a Torbie as well - which further elaborates on her coat pattern. But I'm no expert - I hope someone else can give a better explanation!

This is my Miss Kitty. She was 5 when I found her at the SPCA, and she weighed 23 lbs. Two years later she is a healthier 17 lbs, but the vet says she needs to loss some more. She loves her food! Switching to Origins and hope that will help. It has taken two years, but she has finally moved from sleeping at the food of the bed, to the pillow next to mine.

Wow! Our cats resemble each other a lot![emoji]9786[/emoji] When I adopted Mocha, she weighed 14 pounds, but she has lost some of the excess weight. I'm not sure what she weighs now. But, Mocha loves to eat too! I just switched her to "Young Again" for senior cats. It seems to be working for her so far.
