Male Torti: Male tortoiseshell cats are extremely rare. This is because of their genetics. You see, female cats have two X chromosomes, while males only have one. Female tortoiseshell cats have two X chromosomes, two X chromosomes are needed for this unique pattern, although there is a way for male cats to have it. There is something called Klinefelter Syndrome, which basically makes an extra X chromosome. When a male cat has this there is a possibility of a tortoiseshell pattern. Cats with this tend to have some health issues, one of what h being sterile, or unable to have babies. They also are generally smaller, or more flexible. Asthma: Asthma in cats is much harder to treat than in humans, especially if they have no human help. Asthma can affect a cat’s airway, cause coughing, wheezing, quick breathing, and vomiting. Freedom may have a hard time, especially since things like dust and sand. Since he is in Urchinclan this will deeply affect him as he is surrounded by sand. This could lead to death if he’s not careful enough, and may have a hard time living like a normal cat.
