Cat with a colorful coat (6)

I believe the answer is:

calico

(Other definitions for calico that I've seen before include "Plain cotton cloth, white or unbleached" , "Unbleached sixteen down cloth" , "spotted in America" , "Given material for dress" , "Coarse printed cotton cloth" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
