A tortoiseshell cat is a coat color where the cat is a molted brown cat with black, reddish, or orange patches. They can also have white paws. Tortoiseshell cats have unique genetics. The vast majority of tortoiseshell cats are female, because two X chromosomes are required to produce black, gold and orange coloring.
Youâve heard the nameâ¦youâve heard the rumors. So, what is a tortie, anyway? And whatâs with the tortitude that comes along with it? A âtortie,â or âtortoiseshellâ cat is a feline with a particular coat pattern, not a particular breed of cat. Tortoiseshell markings combine black, orange and brown in patterns that range from brindled (a speckled pattern) to large patches of color. Dilute, or pastel torties, have lighter markings of grey and pale orange.
