These lovely and gentle creatures always attract special attention, because they are full of not one, but several contrasting colors with each other. It is believed that only cats, that is, females, have this magical color. In fact, cats can be tricolor, however, much less often.

The direct origin of cute tricolor pets still remains an unsolved mystery.

Researcher Neil Todd, who was actively studying the migration of domestic cats in Europe and North Africa, came to the conclusion that there were three-colored animals in the French and Italian port towns, which previously came from Egypt.

It should immediately be noted that such a non-standard color is not a direct sign of a particular breed. He only distinguishes his possessor from the total mass. Often, these baleen pets are called tortoiseshell. The fur of such pets has characteristic red, white and black spots.
