    I have never met an orange female, but the orange males who permanently live in the shelter where I help (one has FIV and the other one has a heart disease) are my best friends! I love these two orange guys! They are the ones with the strongest personality, they know what they want and they are very talkative.
    I know it doesn't help you...sorry!

    The orange females I have met are very shy and sweet and nurturing - though my experience is limited. I am not sure it has to do with coloring, although I do have a feeling about blackies, that they are especially affectionate and docile and person-oriented and gentle. So I guess it could have some color link somehow. I understand about being drawn toward a particular color - but I also understand that even if you feel drawn toward a particular color to begin with, a visit to the shelter may introduce you to a kitty of an unexpected color who wins your heart. Happy kitty-finding. I wish I could go looking for more, but we have a harmonious home balance, and we are going to maintain as is.

    My female orangie is just the sweetes kitty. She's so easy going & obedient that I call her my "cat-dog". She is a little on the shy side but she has NEVER been aggressive or mean in any way shape or form, not even when strangers catch her & hold her.
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.

    My Kasie is orange female and just as lovely as they come. Her and sister Mina get along very well. Kasie is a bit more playful than Mina and loves to be held. So I would say go for it.

    My orangie female, Goldie, was the sweetest, most loving cat ever. When she died I went looking for another orange female and that is when I discovered how rare she was. I'd get another orange female in a heartbeat if I could find one when I wanted to add to my brood.

    For now, having one goofy orange male is enough He balances out Mitzi's moodiness.

    My Scout is a female orange tabby. She's the only one in my group of 5 who doesn't get along well with the others. She doesn't like for the younger cats to bother or touch her and she hates my oldest cat, Ripley, with a passion. She is constantly fighting with Jazz for the Queen Bee spot but Jazz is bigger and a little older and always wins.

    On the other hand I have to say Scout it my special kitty. I knew it when I saw her at the shelter. She had been abused by some boys and had really had a hard life. That might explain some of her issues. Anyway, she is a total sweetheart to me, loves to sleep with me everynight and has really bonded with me.

    Out of all 5 of my cats she is the only truly social one with people and doesn't hide when we have company. She obviously prefers people to cats - very surprising knowing that people had abused her.

    I know an orange tabby that hides his head in the crook of my elbow,
    Drools all over me, licks me until it hurts and hisses for no good reason.


    What else does a male orange do?

    My orange boy Sunny is a sweetheart. He's also the goofiest and most entertaining cat too. I had an orange female cat when I was growing up and she became moodier as she got older but I still loved her. My Starr is a Flame Point Siamese mix and he's very much a mama's boy but he's also on the feisty side. I hope that everything will work out for you. I still think that orangies are the best.
