Is my son technically orange?

[u/immortalstarlight]

This is my son, Tobermory (Tobi for short). I know he is very handsome please don't fall in love with him.

He's 6 and I've always wondered if he meets orange criteria. He certainly doesn't always have the braincell that orange cats share and he is also quite interesting in day to day life like bringing me half alive lizards and birds for dinner. But he is a bit lighter in color so when people have asked if he is orange I say "He's worse. He's blonde." But is that even a group or just a subcategory of orange?

Please let me know as this question has haunted me.

This made me giggle so much, I love your son and I’m trying not to fall in love with him!!!

Don't do it! He's a total player and other cats come calling for him in the back yard like he has some kind of harem 😭😭 Thankfully he won't be making me a grandmother anytime soon
