Ooh, why is that?It's not super rare, but they are less common than males. The ginger gene which produces the orange colour is on the X chromosome. Females have two X chromosomes and so need two copies of this gene to become ginger, whereas males need only one. This means there are roughly three males to one female ginger cat. https://www.sciencefocus.com/nature/is-it-true-that-most-ginger-cats-are-male RIP Kitty. --- 'Vinyl is the poor man's art collection'. ...
