Re: How (Not) To Conduct A Very Secret Affair

re: Voltaire - could be, but whatever place he was born to, he's a three color cat! How do you call them in English? Tortoise? Something else? In Germany, such cats are (in)famous for their aggressive temper, but they're also considered a sign of good fortune and hence called "Glückskatze". We had one once, and while it was pretty affectionate and eager to purr and get stroked, it also could easily scratch, without any seeming cause, that's true.

We have tortoiseshell cats in English, but they're not restricted to a certain breed, so I'm not sure they come with a particular temperament?

There are also calico cats, again not a breed but a coloration pattern.
