She's not our first Torbie. Perhaps you recall a little cute-pie named Tressa Lovejoy
So what's her name? I'll announce the names after you've seen the whole brood.

Lordy, Lordy it's a Torbie
Yep, a torbie. Tabby + Tortie = Torbie. I know, from the front, she looks all Tabby. If she ever stops running around, I'll get a picture of her backside so you can see her torti-ness. For now, just trust me, she's a Torbie.

I love blended kitties. We have a Tortie/Siamise I call Cheesecake, but my hubby calls Toasty for she is the color of a toasted Marshmellow.
ReplyDeleteTwo down, and who knows how many to go. So far, adorable.... and VERY serious.
ReplyDeleteshe's very cute. just like the cute little orangie, she's very compact.
ReplyDeletehugs,
puglette
:o)
Tressa was a torbie? I would have called her a calico- a mix of orange, black and white?
ReplyDeleteI am currently owned by a torbie. I'm betting this little lady has a whole lot of spunky-tude. She's just beautiful...but then all ibk's are!
ReplyDeleteLinda -
ReplyDeleteA calico has distinct patches of color. A tortie has multiple colors too, but the colors are blended.
Tressa didn't have solid patches. She had blended patches of color like a Tortie, in a distinctive Tabby pattern, so was a torbie.
Oh that face!
ReplyDeleteOur not so itty bitty kitty is a torbie. She definitely is a frisky one, but so lovely.Can't wait to see more of this one
ReplyDeleteIs Torbie an actual color name? Like calico or tiger?
ReplyDeleteShe is awfully cute, but I'm not sure she matches Tressa-- but Tressa hasn't been replaced as my favourite yet, so I'm a little biased.
ReplyDeleteOh, there is a torbie at our house too!! All stripes but in calico blocks. And all tortie-tude too. :)
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful...but so serious, like her brother!
ReplyDeleteDo I have a Torbie??? A Tuxtie? She has perfect tuxedo markings, but where her fur is not white, it is blended tortie colors. I've been calling her a tortishell tuxedo...And she calls me staff!
You can actually see it from the front. The black 'necklace' stripe has a segment on the center left that's red and not black.

ReplyDeleteI think the technical term would be "Tortoiseshell with white" - Tuxedo is an unofficial name for a "with white" that has the paws and shirt front white.
Anne, I agree... A very serious kitty.
ReplyDeleteAwwwwwwwwwww, she's so cute. Perhaps she would like to play with me and mousey :)prrrr
ReplyDeleteThe NOSE! The FECKLES!
ReplyDeleteEarnest, earnest little face; the two of them have almost identical faces, except that her nose is just a little shorter...
ReplyDeleteoh my word... SO CUTE!!! something about black noses on kitties is just so darling! And she looks like a serious boss-lady! If she's got brothers, i'm betting she bosses them around!
ReplyDeleteWebthistle: Can you share a photo of your tuxtie? I would really love to see that!
ReplyDeletetorbie with a teenie 'tude'.
ReplyDeletevery adorable!
Swoon. Those tricolor cats!
ReplyDeletesquee!!
ReplyDeleteOh.My.Lord. Look at that sweet little face! *swoon*
ReplyDeleteI want to kiss that little nose! And yes, being owned by a torbie is great fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat! a! cutie!
ReplyDeleteI want to kees that darling little black nosie!
ReplyDeleteWell come sweet, new little girl. And who could forget Tressa? "The cutest little kitten in the history of the world" or something like that. except for the Bean, of course!
ReplyDeleteLovely girl - Torbies are fascinatin'
ReplyDeleteYou will truly enjoy the world you find past the door of your room! There is a wondrous kitty who will show you how to be wondrous growed-up kitties!
shove a piece or three of kibble under the door...and you will have a friend past forever!
I want to boop that little black nose and make her go all cross-eyed (and then scritch her belly!)
ReplyDeleteI don't know if it's because the Furmans were so goofy and playful, but these cute little newbies do indeed look very serious! This baby girl kinda looks like a mouse with that nose; adorable!
ReplyDeleteLook at that face - so cute. I didn't realize I have a dilute torbie until I saw this picture; mine has similar markings in the face and legs, and then her back has the dilute tortie coloring.
