Calico cats are known for their distinctive fur pattern of three colors—white, black, and orange. The gene responsible for this tri-colored pattern is sex-linked and therefore calico cats are almost always female. In some countries, such as the United States, a calico is also used to refer to any domestic cat with a tri-colored or tricolored coat.

Calico cats are usually identified by the color of their fur which is usually white mixed with two other colors or shades. Orange or ginger is one of the two visible colors, usually along with black or gray. Calico cats are also known to have a tabby pattern, which is the swirling lines on their fur, and dots of color on their fur. They sometimes also have a spotted patch of white fur.

In Japan, calico cats are regarded as lucky because of the three colors in their fur. Calicos are believed to bring good luck to their owners, and they are often chosen by business owners hoping to bring success to their businesses. That's why they are one of the most popular cats in Japan, even though they cannot be registered as a purebred.

In addition to being a good-luck charm, calico cats also make great pets. They tend to be people-oriented cats, enjoying the company of their owners and being an active member of the household. Calicos are also known for their intelligence and playfulness.

In sum, calico cats are not only lucky, but also make great pets. They are known for their distinct tri-colored fur and good temperaments, and they make great companions for their owners.
