As orange as the regular tabby is, a tabby cat is not a cat breed, so won’t be included in this list (sorry, tabby, we love you anyway!). There is simply no such thing as a solid orange tabby….’though there are orange cat breeds with more or less solid orange fur’.Īnd that’s what we’ll be focusing on in this article: orange cat breeds.
No tabby cat has a solid orange coat. As mentioned above, tabby cats have stripes, dots, or some sort of pattern on their coats.
In fact, it’s so statistically skewed it’s estimated that there are around 8 males for every 2 females! There are more orange tabby males than females. For some reason unknown to even the smartest amongst us, there are a lot more male orange tabby cats than females. We think tabby cats are adorable and make lovely companions – breed or not, orange or not. It’s easy to think Tabby’s are a breed since their orange coats give them a very distinct appearance, but alas, they are not. Tabby cats have the distinction of being the most common felines, but Tabby’s are not a breed. Many breeds with orange coats are rather sweet and affectionate, but before we meet these cats, we should talk about the difference between Tabby’s and cat breeds with orange coats or any color coat for that matter …Ī tabby cat is simply any domestic cat that has a coat with stripes, dots, line, or swirling patterns accompanied by the typical tabby M pattern on the forehead.
