Description

From my Cats In Hats series, here is the Mother Of The Bride. She is a well dressed calico in a white silk hat with a netting veils, a jeweled hat pin and rhinestones. Her perfectly pink nose is matched with just the right pink lipstick.

ORIGINAL IS FOR SALE. It is an 8x10 on canvas (not stretched it is on an 8.5x11" sheet of canvas) will go easily into an 8x10 mat and into an 11x14 frame. I do have a double mat black with gold for it, if a person wants me to mat it, or it can be sold without the mat and you can mat it. Price without the mat is $100 including shipping, With the mat, it would depend on where you are because the shipping is a lot more expensive with the mat. I am guessing it would be around $50 more. Also if you prefer the mat in off white instead of black. I do have that available. Same price, Contact me by email or phone and I can always send you photos of it with the mat if you want it. email astrologyandmore@gmail.com or phone 541-863-6631.

Calico cats are domestic cats with a spotted or parti-colored coat that is predominantly white, with patches of two other colors (often, the two other colors are orange tabby and black). Outside of North America, the pattern is more usually called tortoiseshell-and-white. In the province of Quebec, they are sometimes called chatte d'Espagne (French for '(female) cat of Spain'). Other names include brindle, tricolor cat, mi-ke (Japanese for 'triple fur'), and lapjeskat (Dutch for 'patches cat'); calicoes with diluted coloration have been called calimanco or clouded tiger. Occasionally, the tri-color calico coloration is combined with a tabby patterning. This calico patched tabby is called a caliby.[1]

"Calico" refers only to a color pattern on the fur, not to a breed.[2] It is absent from lists of breeds.[3] Among the breeds whose standards allow calico coloration are the Manx, American Shorthair, British Shorthair, Persian, Japanese Bobtail, Exotic Shorthair and Turkish Van.
Because genetic determination of some coat colors in cats is linked to the X chromosome, calicoes are nearly always female.[2][4] Because of the genetics involved, calico males are rare, and generally have impaired vitality and are almost always sterile.
