They say cats have nine lives. But ginger cats must have at least ninety.
With all the wild, silly, and totally unpredictable things they get up to, it’s a miracle they’ve made it this far. Maybe it’s thanks to the devoted humans who put up with every last shenanigan.
Over on the subreddit One Orange Braincell, owners and orange cat fans alike share all the moments that make these chaotic felines so lovable—from their most unhinged antics to their cuddly, lazy, and downright adorable sides.
Scroll down to see some of the best ginger cats in action.
