The female cat, therefore, can have the orange mutant gene on one X chromosome and the gene for a black coat on the other. The piebald gene is on a different chromosome. If expressed, this gene codes for white, or no color, and is dominant over the alleles that code for a certain color (i.e. orange or black), making the white spots on calico cats.
A calico cat has one X chromosome that has the gene for orange fur and an X chromosome that has the gene for black fur. Females have two X chromosomes, so it is possible for them to carry one X chromosome that has the orange color gene and one that has the black color gene. variation on the usual calico color pattern is seen in dilute or pastel calico cats. These variations get their name from the fact that the color pattern is a diluted or pastel version of the typical colors.
