I do think, however, they were lucky that cat tolerated the clothing. And what's the comment at the end of the article about another cat of the same breed as Tama taking her place? I didn't realize calicos were all that rare. Sionara, Tama. Jill |

Dunno about calicos, per se, but MALE calicos certainly are - seems its a gender related trait. |
