The Average Weight of Female Calicos Cats
A calico cat's coat contains a majority of white fur with patches of black and orange tabby, also called red tabby, fur mixed in. The orange patches have typical tabby lines or dots. Calico cats come in short, medium and long-haired breeds, which vary in size. The Cat Fanciers' Association currently recognizes 16 breeds of cat that can result in the calico color pattern. A cat with a majority of white fur, along with blue and cream patches on her coat is called a dilute calico and comes in various breeds of cat, similar to the traditional calico. Because of the genetics of the coloring, most calico cats of any breed are born female.
A female calico's cat's average weight varies by the breed of the cat. The average weight of a female Maine coon calico cat, one of the largest cat breeds, varies between 9 and 12 pounds, while the diminutive, short-legged munchkin cat weighs between 4 and 8 pounds, according to the Iams website. The Scottish fold, with its unique, folded-down ears, weighs between 6 and 9 pounds. The manx, a tailless breed of cat weighs between 7 and 11 pounds, as does the long-haired Persian. The British shorthair female calico weighs between 9 and 15 pounds, while the American shorthair weighs between 8 and 12 pounds.
