Hi
A blue patched tabby is a dilute tortie tabby and if yours has a ringed tail then that is what it is whereas a dilute tortie is either a blue-cream tortie ( being the dilute of a ordinary tortie) or a lilac-cream (being the dilute of a choclate tortie) without any tabby markings. Hope this helps.
Kay.
