Calico Cats

Calico cats are domestic cats with a spotted or parti-colored coat that is predominantly white, with patches of two other colors (often the two other colors are orange tabby and black). Outside of North America the pattern is more usually called tortoiseshell-and-white. In the province of Quebec, they are sometimes called chatte d'Espagne (French for '(female) cat of Spain'). Other names include tricolor cat, mi-ke (Japanese for 'triple fur') and lapjeskat (Dutch for 'patches cat'); calicoes with diluted coloration have been called calimanco or clouded tiger. Occasionally, the tri-color calico coloration is combined with a tabby patterning. This calico patched tabby is called a caliby.[1]

Wallpaper Description:

To investigate, or not to investigate? That is the question! Cricket is enjoying her chair so much that she might stay put!

Cricket is my parent's cat. My husband is allergic to cats so we can't have one. I love visiting with Cricket when we go to my Mom's house. :D

PS. If you think you've seen Cricket on DN before this, you are right! Here is a link to a wallpaper I made of her almost a year ago. She hasn't changed much! :D

Here is another wall that I made of her at the same time.

Here is one more of her in the same chair as this wallpaper, but in a different pose. (Can you tell that I love this kitty?) lol

I made this at a 1280x1024, resolution, but I'm happy to see that this wall looks great on my 1920 by 1080 screen also. :)
