Most Challenging Characteristics of the Calico
My girl has long, "sunwashed toned" coloring, a pastel calico you could say. my only issue is grooming. If we do not brush daily ; we get tangles.
When, Where and How I Got My Calico
She was a newborn orphan my husband and I raised by hand.
Along with her 4 brothers.
I was awake late one night and heard what sounded like baby birds. I went outside and there was a timid stray calico mama cat, leaving her infants on my porch.
My plan was to spay/neuter, vaccinate all of them, then the mother went missing days later.
I vividly recall picking Dumplin' up out of my hosta beds, and holding her in the palm of my hand. I thought she reminded me of an Easter egg.
I am happy to say all 5 kittens are now 2 , and happy, healthy,safe and loved.
I am sure they were sent from Heaven.
I'd Describe My Cat As…
Amazingly beautiful, playful, plays fetch with ponytail holders, smart, affectionate,soft, and just glorious. She loves games, hide and seek, chase, and has an afinity for toys.
She also wants to be picked up a lot, and asks by putting her hands on our knees.
She was very easy to train. She has no behavior issues. She has no health issues.
If your cat has long hair, be sure to brush daily.
Advice
- Spay/neuter, vaccinate, keep indoors , feed them a healthy diet , and love them.
