She's a long-haired tortoiseshell (grey, peach and white). I did name her Smudge myself because she was the kitten of a feral cat who brought her kittens into our house when we were living in Jamaica. They had probably just opened their eyes; they couldn't locomote much yet. The first thing I saw on Smudge as she and her sibs hid behind the toilet in the spare bathroom was a smudge of peach on her forehead. So the name kind of stuck.

She, of course, was the cleverest and prettiest of the kittens so we took her on an airplane and brought her to Canada, after a catnapping and at least one other misadventure.
