Anyone else have this problem?

So when I first brought Cammy home all my friends wanted to know what she looked like, "Well shes a calico. So she's orange,red,white and black" was my reply. Mostly everyone I knew was clueless when it came to what a calico was, they looked at me like I was crazy. I then had to explain in detail what a calico was...So here's to all of our splotchy kittens that make non-cat people seem quite clueless.
