Description - Calicos and Kin by Judith Lindley
Over the past several years cats have been fast replacing dogs as the #1 Family Pet. The cat show halls feature all breeds in all their varieties of beautiful colors. The most striking of these color blends are the cats with coats of orange and black, some with the addition of white. These colors are not only of special attraction to the eye but are steeped in mystery, legend, and lore. Although there are many books about the pure bred cats there are very few about Calicos, scientifically known as the Tortoiseshell-Calico colored cats. This book specialized in only these colors, their history, legends, and facts. Not only is the tortoiseshell-calico a color breed of its own but a color of many breeds of cats. Just as the paint and palomino horse are color breeds so is the tortoiseshell-calico cat and she deserves her own place as a color breed as well as a color within a breed.
