orange tabby

Striped marmalade feline

An orange tabby is a cat with orange or reddish fur marked by the distinctive tabby pattern—stripes, swirls, or spots created by bands of color on individual hairs.

The coloring ranges from pale ginger to deep marmalade.

Orange tabbies are overwhelmingly male due to the genetics of coat color.

Their orange tabby had claimed the sunny windowsill as his throne.
