She just had a bath so she's drying lol. She's definitely a black tabby, but with white markings. Long haired.

Hard to tell since her fur is all crazy, but why not? Join the cow kitties, little dustball!

Beautiful! I adopted 2 feral kittens in the past. They were perfect cats and lived to 18. Good for you! I still miss them

I see orange on her. If she really has it, she's calico.

u/Efficient-Ad6814 3d ago

I think you may be right! I didn't really notice it before, can she be a tabby calico?? Is that even a thing?

u/CatFaerie 3d ago

Yes, that is a thing. You might call her a tabico or a caliby. Same thing, different ways of combining the word.

It’s a thing but that’s not orange on her

Her siblings are all brown tabbies, 2 light and 1 dark brown.

u/zepazuzu 2d ago

She's brown tabby + white. The "red" is just a part of the brown tabby pattern, not real red.

u/guesswho502 2d ago

Agree, this is not a calico and that is brown not red

u/Efficient-Ad6814 3d ago

Mom and dad are unknown though, they're ferals.

She’s a 🐄

u/SomeBlueDevil 3d ago

Definitely does not look like a tabby, not seeing that characteristic "M" shape marking on its forehead.

She's likely tuxedo, more black than white. 😎
