Some orange cat facts! 🧡
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 🐈
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 🐈
