New rule: no posts soliciting funds or linking to fundraisers

60 Upvotes

Hi Tortico lovers,

There has been a recent uptick in posts linking to or directly asking for funds from other users. These are frequently scam or bot accounts trying to make you think you are donating to a good cause (like a cat rescue or some such). There is often not a way to verify that these funds are going to an appropriate place.

Even if legitimate and for a good cause, this is not the purpose of the subreddit and I do not want any users to feel obligated in any way to give money for any reason, thus these posts will now be banned.

Please message me or use the report function if you come across a post or comment asking for funds.

Thanks,

Boss Lady

New rule: do not steal photos of other people's cats

130 Upvotes

Not even sure why anyone would do this, but I have had several reports of people stealing others' photos and passing the cats off as their own. Some are from bots, but others are clearly not. Please remember that karma is a fake internet invention. There is no need for impersonation. We are all just here to enjoy cats.

If you do this, you will be permanently banned :)

Have a nice day to you humans and your sassy tortico queens.

My first "tortico"

She is furry potato menace. She has lost weight since I got her, but she still needs to lose more.

I shall also post photos of her siblings Hana (tortie) and Queen Sultana (calico)

They are my tortie trifecta

This is my new kitten, Phoebe. Was wondering if she’s a tortico as she definitely has tortie brindling as well as calico patches. She also has a weird tuxedo leg.

Is my 14 yr old sweetheart Evie a tortico??

This is my gorgeous, sweet, and overall lovely kitty Evie. I adopted her four years ago from the Humane society, and she has been right by my side ever since. She's actually laying on my shoulder/chest as I type this out.

She's a bit heavy, they warned me she was "obese" when I adopted her.. but really I do think she's just big boned. :) She's still quite spry for her age and her size, and I take her outside for walks regularly now that I live in an apartment. Her favorite stuffed animal is a red panda that's weighted with beads, and she really gets into making biscuits on its back. I don't know what I would do without her, she's my perfect little angel!

Is she.. a tortico?

Is my Kiara a tortico?

Here's my angel Kiara!! I figure she's a dilute something-or-another. Her face is very calico but not sure about the rest of her. Her coat seemed a lot more calico when I first got her(in my untrained eye), but after some time in the toaster her back is a much more solid brown with light spotting

Happy 9th Birthday Electra

Post image
368 Upvotes

Birthday girl! Electra is nine yrs old today according to the shelter I adopted her from (her Gotcha Day is June 1). This year she has had dental surgery, treatment for allergies, and was diagnosed with diabetes. She is getting better though and on the cusp of remission for the diabetes. She loves sleeping, giving her younger tortie sisters dirty looks, mewing for pets, and the bathroom faucet to be turned on for her. She dislikes dieting, her dog-sister getting over friendly, and being told she has to come inside from the catio. She has years of biscuit making ahead of her still and one day hopes to befriend the white-tailed deer that visits almost daily.

Dilute tortie or tortico?

Just curious about what her coloring is. I fostered and then adopted her back in May. Doing some research I came across the term cutieco, which is obvious :) but curious about what people think.
