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.

RIP Kitty.
