5 Things Only Tortie Owners Will Understand 😹
Because living with a tortie is equal parts chaos, comedy, and love.

Tortie parents: this one’s for you 🧡🐾
Whether you currently share your home with a tortie or you’ve loved one in the past… you’ll definitely recognise these! 🐾😹
Here are 5 things only tortie owners truly understand😀
1️⃣ Their attitude is bigger than their body
Torties don’t simply walk — they strut.
They don’t meow — they announce their opinions.
And if you forget who runs the household?
Don’t worry… they’ll remind you.
2️⃣ They decide when you’re allowed to admire them
You can’t just stroll up and pet a tortie.
Nope.
You must wait for Her Royal Spiciness to grant permission — usually right after she’s ignored you on purpose.
3️⃣ They have a stare that can pierce your soul
You know the look.
That silent, judging expression that says:
“I’m not angry… just disappointed.”
And somehow it works every single time.

4️⃣ They switch from cuddly angel to chaotic gremlin in 0.3 seconds
One minute they’re melting in your lap, purring like a tiny motor.
The next?
Zoomies.
Across the house.
At 3am.
5️⃣ When they love you, they love you fiercely
Tortie affection is rare, deliberate, and feels extra special.
When a tortie chooses you, she chooses you wholeheartedly…
…even if she pretends otherwise.
Look out for the next Tortie of the Week on Sunday!
