Interesting genetics information. Myself I'm really interested in animal genetics though I don't know too much about cat genetics. The black on black thing was really strange I had no idea. I also found it interesting how the website was using the term "agouti" as I once read that the term agouti applies to nothing over the size of rabbits. Well I guess that was wrong.

Myself I don't really believe in color-linked personality traits. I do think it's fun to compare an orange cat with another orange cat on forums such as this. However some people take the extra mile and choose their cat based solely on color because they believe that the cat will be a certain way. I think that a person should choose the cat based on the cat and not its color. Why I say this is that once I was in a petstore and this worker woman was saying "Ohh if you want a friendly cat get an orange cat and if you want a shy cat get a white cat but don't get a black cat because they are agressive..." I thought that that was absurd! It sounded like the woman was talking about breeds or something. I hope that the people didn't listen to that advice when picking out their pet. White cats are supposed to be shy and aloof, for example, and my white cat was so sweet. I'm still sad over her death 8 years later. Well I do think that it is fun to compare cats on here as long as it's not taken to the extreme. In response to the orange cat thread my parents female orange tabby does like to "talk" but she doesn't like to try new foods. My parents have made those cats waaay too picky!
