The term "tortoiseshell" is typically reserved for cats with brindle coats that have relatively few or no white markings. Those that are largely white with red and brown patches (rather than a brindled aspect) are described as tortoiseshell-and-white (in the United Kingdom) or calico (in Canada and the America). Tortoiseshells and calicos are not specific Cat breed. The tortoiseshell markings appear in many different breeds as well as in non-purebred domestic cats. This pattern is especially preferred in the Japanese Bobtail breed.
