A true calico cat is orange -- sometimes referred to as red -- black and white. The cat typically has patches of these colors in varying sizes and locations over her entire body.
Caliche is generally light-colored, but can range from white to light pink to reddish-brown, depending on the impurities present.

In northern Chile and Peru, caliche also refers to mineral deposits that include nitrate salts.
