Description: This is our Penny praying for a home and thanking our volunteer for saving her life. One of our volunteers was walking a dog and someone came up to her and asked if she wanted the kitten, if not he was abandoning her. Penny is so friendly and sweet and is deserving of her own home and she should never ever have to worry about being abandoned again. PLEASE GIVE PENNY HER FOREVER HOME.
According to cat-lovers-only.com, the Calico cat breed is actually not a breed at all, but a tri-color coat patter, often black, red, and white. Many different types of cats can have this coat pattern, and it is not restricted to any particular type of breed. All three colors are in a distinct patches, not mixed as in Tortoiseshells. To be a true tri-color, a calico cat's colors must be: 1) white; 2) red or cream; and 3) black, blue, chocolate, lilac, cinnamon, or fawn. The variations in color from red and black are caused by a gene which dilutes, or lightens up the basic color, and produces a dilute calico cat, most commonly with a coat of white, cream, and blue."
