Calli's Pattern

One of the most mystifying patterns I've ever seen on any animal.

 

This is my pet cat, whose name is Calli, 'cuz she's a calico. I never noticed this pattern (at least not from this angle) until 6 years after we first adopted her.

 

The pattern looks like a black cat arching its back under a full moon... Of course, the moon definitely isn't white, but dang, it's darn close!

 

Spooky, isn't it?

 

In Ripley's Believe It or Not! book, there is a photo of a calico with markings that actually look like "CAT"!
