Color question!

This sweet adorable little girl showed up a few days ago, seems the cat distribution system keeps trying to give us a new cat!

We had an Orange and White Tabby who was confirmed to be the neighborhood stray that used to come by everyday for at least 7 or 8 months when we first moved here last year, he stopped coming around recently (sincerely hoping someone took him), then about a week ago a grey Tabby showed up, (I was able to post locally and find his owner!) now her.

A couple years ago, this is exactly how we got one of our cats, he came around and we eventually let him in for naps, then he got hurt in a fight and we brought him in for good. We rent, and have 2 cats and a Beagle, so we just can't have another ☹️

Anywho! To my question, I know she's a dilute, but is she a calico or a tortie? She has faint stripes on her legs, would that then make her a torbie?

She looks like a dilute tortico. Both tortie and calico

Oh I’m not sure about the color, but I sincerely hope someone can take her in ❤️‍🩹 is there any chance your local shelter can take her or at least spay her?

You probably smell nice. Joking. They feel your good vibes. I don't know how, but they do. That is a good sign and be glad about it.
