what colouring would you call this kitten?
http://twitpic.com/bahszw ~ i hope that works, its head is black\dark grey and its body is light grey with white and black going though it, and it has a white stripe from its chin to his stomach and has a little beard and mittens. What colour would you call this?? does it have a name ( eg. like other cats colourings are called calico or tabby) i've never seen it before
how is the kitten calico if calico cats can only be orange, black and white or grey, cream and white? please don't answer if you don't have a good answer

Its a genetic mutation that causes the mix of white black and grey hairs, in a dog or horse you would call it roan but in a cat it is called a tweed mutation, which has only recently been noted as a colour mutation.
here is a site that goes through some of the cat colourations including tweed http://www.messybeast.com/indefinable-colours.htm

Calico
Well if you know you won't like people’s answers to your question then you should ask it on Yahoo Answers, and you can thumbs down me all you want. Maybe you should try Googling "Calico Cat" and see for yourself, that's what Google is for, especially if you don't like the answers you will get on here. Don’t be so ignorant and unappreciative the next time you ask someone a question and you don't like their answer. I still stick by my original answer. The cat in the pic looks like a Calico. If you don't like my answer, then forget you.
