various video clips and pics of orange cats. text: what makes orange cats so special? orange cats make up about 20% of the feline population. most of which (80%) are male. this is because the ginger gene is carried on the x chromosome. so males only need one x chromosome to get the ginger gene. orange cats are also called marmalade or butterscotch cats. like redheaded humans, orange cats have a pigment called pheomelanin which gives them their red, orange, and cream colors. an orange cat with green or blue eyes is especially rare. orange cats have a reputation for being quite friendly. they were voted most gregarious by the sand diego human society. and they have a reputation as serial snugglers. all orange cats are tabbies, which refers to their markings, not their breed. according to a study done in france, orange cats are most commonly found in rural areas, possibly due to less reproductive competition. pop culture is full of orange cats, including: garfield, puss in boots, milo (and otis), spot (star trek), jonesys (alien), orion (men in black), orangey (breakfast at tiffany's) they are very special cats, indeed! song: les monstres by david ari leon
