Ever wonder what makes orange cats so special? Spoiler alert: It’s in their DNA! 🧬 Let’s break it down. 👇

🐾 1. 80% of orange cats are BOYS. Why? The orange gene is linked to the X chromosome. Males only need ONE copy to be orange, but females need TWO! That’s why ginger girls are rare!

🐾 2. No such thing as a solid orange cat. Every single orange cat is a tabby—even if their stripes are faint. The gene for solid orange fur? It doesn’t exist.

🐾 3. Freckles, freckles everywhere! 🐯 A lot of orange cats get little black spots on their nose, lips, and gums as they grow. It’s called lentigo—and yes, it’s 100% adorable.

🐾 4. Orange cats = extra social? 🤔 Studies suggest male orange cats tend to be friendlier and bolder than other cats. Coincidence? Science says maybe not!

🐾 5. Some are bright orange, some are creamy. Why? It’s all about pheomelanin, the pigment that creates orange fur. Some cats have more, some have less. That’s why you see different shades of ginger!

🐾 6. Big boys, big attitudes. Male orange cats tend to be larger than other cats. In the wild, bigger size = more dominance. Maybe that’s why they act like they own the place. 😼

🐾 7. Sun addicts! 🌞 Orange cats LOVE warmth. Their fur absorbs light differently, making them naturally drawn to sunny spots and warm blankets.

🐾 8. They TALK. A lot. 🗣️ Ever notice orange cats seem extra chatty? Some owners swear they’re the most vocal felines out there. Science hasn’t confirmed it—but orange cat parents KNOW.

🐾 9. They might live longer? 🧐 Some research suggests coat color could be linked to lifespan. Bigger size = survival advantage. But at the end of the day, health matters more than fur color!

🐾 10. They’ve been loved for centuries. 🏺 Ancient cultures believed orange cats brought luck, warmth, and prosperity. They knew what was up!

🔥 Orange cats = tiny tigers with BIG personalities. If you have one, you already know. 😉

Tongue ties.
They say them to be useful to prevent race horses from swallowing their own tongue...Something physically impossible to do.
They say them to help race horses to breath better...Something absurd, as horses can breath only through their nose.
The reality is that tongue ties' only purpose is the one to prevent horses from putting their tongue over the bit trying to ease the pain.
Tongue ties are just for more control.
Please stop believing the endless lies of the equestrian industry to justify their abuse and exploitation 💔🙏🏻

Dear Horse Loving Friends,
I have been asked to help a friend of mine place her two horses. She is diagnosed with a rare quite possibly terminal lung disease. She has 4 horses. She has had all of them since they were yearlings or foals.
The 35 qnd 37 year olds will stay with her to her last breath, but the other 2 are younger and she is hoping to find them a forever pasture.
Her heart is broken, her body is broken, and her finances are draining fast. I told her I would reach out and try to assist her in placing her two boys. I have meet these horses and they are lovely.
Spirit ~age 19 big stocky qtr horse.easy keeper,no founder issues. Shoer told her lots of paints have navicular. He needs corrective shoes on the front. He is very well trained: easy to handle, great pasture buddy,no vices,easy to doctor,shoe, bathe, load and unload in trailer. He's a very sweet boy that gets aong well with other horses. He used to be ridden.
Phantom ~ great name look at his face (Phantom of the Opera!)
He and Spirit are very bonded. She is praying she can keep them together. He's approx same age as spirit.. I will be vetting any possibilities as thoroughly as any adoption we do.

The boys are in Smartsville, Calif.
Thanks
LYNN

“My friend’s daughter went to adopt a cat from the local shelter... she chose this cat because he was 20 years old & didn't want him to spend the rest of his life in a shelter...
There aren't words for a moment like this... the picture says it all..."
