About tortoiseshell cats

What tortoiseshell cats are like to live with

A tortoiseshell, or tortie, is a cat whose coat has patches of ginger mixed with another colour. This page also includes cats listed as torbies (tortoiseshell tabbies). Tortoiseshell is a coat colour, not a breed, so torties can be moggies or pedigrees.
