Is it true that girl cats are multi-colored and boys are just two colors?

No. Both male and female cats can be any color or combination of colors. Case in point: my female cat is completely black (well, she has a few white hairs here and there, maybe 20 white hairs total), and my male cat is a gold tabby (black, grey, and gold).The orange/red coat color is usually only found on male cats, but it is not impossible for a female cat to be orange. Orange cats are usually males because the gene for the red-orange color appears only on x chromosomes. Since females have two x chromosomes, the other x chromosome will usually alter the color from orange to something else. Since males only have one x chromosome, if they are carrying the orange gene they will usually end up orange.
