My new Puss

[Aralis]

Well I have been wanting another cat for awhile now and I finally got one that was declawed and fixed. She is I was told a Black Calico which is not very common. She is long haired and still trying to adjust to her new home and mostly my other cat Buddy.

Here are a couple of pics the old owner sent me of her so you can see how pretty she is.

They called her Jellybean but I think I will name her something different once she adjusts and if it works. Any ideas for names?

Isn't the couch cute?...LOL

Thanks! I was trying to find online what she was. I did see some of those and thought she could possibly be that type.

she's very pretty.

my calico (or whatever she is, i never found out for sure) is like 80% black with orange and white just poking out here and there on her back and tail... with white neck and paws. but she's got a sleek coat, nothing quite as adorable your fuzzy wonder. but i love her completely....

She's quite adorable and with a very unique appearance.

You may want to choose a name for her now, though, and start using it so that she doesn't get confused and/or associate "Jellybean" with her previous people. New home, new name and all that jazz.

Really? I would have called it Calico too... I thought tortoise shell were more greyish "tiger" patterns...? When I lived with my daughter's mom, we had four cats. One Black longhair, One B&W shorthair, One Calico and one like I just described. Always described her as Tortoise. It looks as if Aralis' is a mix of the two. It's certainly a rare color mix. Calicos usually have more white.

Calico is apparently just a color pattern description

Yes calico and tortoise are just a name for their coloring. She has very little white on her. Her back looks like a tortie. I believe she is a tortie with white as they call it. She is so precious and fuzzy!

MsterBeau your cats are adorable!!

Beautiful cat! I love calico cats, they are so much fun!

[Crazed Vampyress]

[Homicidalheathen]

Yup very rare. Is she fixed? Healthy? How old?

She doesn't look like show quality but......just curious.

She is fixed and healthy. The previosu owner believes her to be about 6. He had gotten her from the Humane Society.

Couple more pics.

I decided to name her Bella.

I used to have three strays that I fed. We would of took them in but my stepmother was allergic. I ended up keeping them in my room during the cold months.

There was Buddy, Mischief, and a gray Kitten we just called Kitten. Poor things.

My other cat's name is Bud or Buddy. He is one smart cat and has the best personality and he likes to "talk".
