A majority of her fur is a mix of light brown and dark brown and black and she has solid black on the backs of her front legs and orange splotches on the back of her back legs and on her mouth and cheeks and white on her paws, under her chin and under her belly, that is like 5 different colors, unless the light brown and dark brown is considered 1 color then it is 4.

Calico cats are white, orange and black. Torties have no white or little or no white and are regularly orange, black and brown. almost like a brindle. Calicos and torties are almost consistently woman, yet I certainly have seen 2 adult males. additionally the two the calico and the tortie could be "diluted" which in a calico ability that they are gray white and yellow. In a tortie it ability gray, mild brown, and yellow. I certainly have modern-day in my journey that the two the tortie and the calico are somewhat sassier than different colours of cats.

If kitty is like a black cat with brown and other colors slashed on top, she's a tortie. If she is white with the brown/buff, black/gray "jacket" and her underbelly is white and paws are white, she's calico. If she has any stripes on her whatsoever, she is a tri colored tabby.

A calico is different colors in big patches. A tortie is different colors mixed all together - like if you took salt and pepper and mixed it around that's a tortie.

Sounds like a tortie to me, calicos usually only have the 'tortie' colour on the tops of their backs and head

She would be a tortoiseshell. The true "calico" is a cat with a mostly white body and blotches of the orange and black. You see totoiseshell cats much more frequently in my experience.

It's a tortoiseshell. Calicos are mostly white.
