Kitty starts to be nice to them but then they go and hiss at her lol
Once they settle down i think they will become great mates,
Shes only young her self so im sure she will adapt soon.
She keeps eating there food im sure she is just trying to annoy them lol

They are so sweet :hug:,may be kitty is a bit jellous? Give her extra love and attention , some times older cats wont takein to kittens, dont know why ,once i brought a kitten thinking my DD being female would like to lookafter her,but she went to bedroom and refuse to come down?But DD was older cat , i think you have to give time to kitty untill she is sure they are not going to replace her and then they become good mates ;)

I will forgive you this time but do notttttttt do it again  :evillaugh: :evillaugh:

Yes you can put pics of cats where you like and it doesnt have to be in the Bridge section.

I have had Sasa now for just over 2 yrs but she is still to scared to let me touch her  ;D Luckily she grooms herself so well and I cant wait for her to decide that she will trust me. She is about 10yrs old and must have had a horrible life to be so scared.

As he is not a calico maybe I shouldnt put my big man in this thread  but but but here is Misa  ;D

calicos are generally solid blodges of colour (red or black) on a white background. Kitty is tabby in patches, so is a bit of a mixture really. She is gorgeous whatever she is. :Luv:

There's definitely a bit of Tabby in there, so I think she may be a Tortie-Tabby and White.

There's also a collection of tortie & Calico pics on the Tortie Appreciation thread for more comparison.

From the pic it looks like she is a very gorgeous black classic tortie tabby and white. I love the way half of her front leg is red, the other half is black tabby and then a white paw, soooo cute!  :Luv:
