Not at all, at least not orange farm cats. I wish they were.
Not necessarily, but they can be.
No, cats with an orange fur are often male. But this is not always the case.
No, there are females as well. Yes, there are female orange/red/ginger tabbys, but the chance of one being born is about 20% Verifying the above statement, around 1/4 of orange cats are female. :) To get an orange female, both parents must have some orange in them. To get an orange male, the mother must be orange or tortoiseshell/calico, and the father can be any other colour. Actually 80% of orange tabbys are male with the rest being sterile it is a mutation in the xy chromosone
yes some but they are mostly malesStatistically, orange male cats outnumber orange female cats by 3 to 1.
No, I have personally had female orange tabby cats.
Orange cats can be either male or female. The only color that I know of that is most always female is the Calico color. Personally I have never seen a male Calico cat. Most male calico or tortoiseshell cats are sterile.
Most Orange cats are male - but not all, so if you have a female orange cat that has not been fixed then yes, she can definitely get pregnant.
According to the DVM at the Cat Channel: "Most, but certainly not all, orange tabby cats are male. It's about 80/20 male to female. " You can check out more at: http://www.catchannel.com/experts/arnold_plotnick/orange-tabby-male-cats-and-calico-female-cats.aspx Also, orange tabby cats are about 80% male, 20% female on average.
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.
It is just a genetic trait of their species. Not all orange cats have orange eyes, but it is the most common. Cats can have eyecolours as wide in variety as humans.
The species of cats that are orange are called Tab or Tabbies. The orange color in the cats suppresses the recessive homozygous genotype so that means there is no such thing as a solid orange cat.
