Some orange cat facts! 🧡

ginger-cats_1696448285.jpg

Ginger cats are more likely to be male than female - this is because the “ginger gene” which produces the orange color is on the X chromosome. Females (xx) have two X chromosomes and so need two copies of this gene to become ginger, whereas males need only one (xy) 🐈

This means that around 80% of ginger cats are male 🐾

Ginger tom cats father tortoiseshell or ginger females. If both parents are ginger, then they will have all ginger kittens 🐈

ginger-tabby-1-grande_1696448298.jpg

Pheomelanin is the pigment responsible for the ginger colour in cats (this is the same pigment that causes red hair in humans). The amount of this pigment reflects how intense the ginger colour of the cat is 🐾

Although early socialization plays the biggest role in an adult cat’s personality, there is some anecdotal evidence that says cats’ personalities vary between different colors. Male Ginger cats have a reputation of being assertive, vocal and active. Female Ginger cats are known to be calmer and quieter 🐈

@mytwistedsoul

The gif made me laugh and I thought you'd like it too xD

Hanging in there is good, it's a lot of effort and you're doing great ❤️

I don't really know an answer but here's another gif, not sure what's happening but it looks pretty serious 🤨

@SleepyShyCat It made me laugh too. The nose! Omgosh 😊

It's ok to not know the answer to that. It's a hard question to answer tbh 😕 
It does look serious! Kitty got those mittens spread out and ready to handle whatever comes their way!

Haha, sometimes my cat stands like this at the window when the neighbours are about xD although he rests his little paws against the wall, he's not as talented as this cat is :0
