For all of you, and all the rest
Of all the cats, Orange Cats are best!

OK,
OK, before you others come at me claws-out, all the cats are best. Grey
cats, black cats, white cats, striped cats — you are all marvels.
Every single one of you. There's just something about the humans owned by orange cats that drives them to the internet, doing orange cat searches that land them here at Watermark.

I
recently received a rather rudely-phrased comment, complaining that
there is no list of names for orange cats here. Well, there ya go. Some
of these are cats of my acquaintance, or cats who live with
long-tall-biped people who stop by here to tell their orange cat
stories. And then, of course, I have my own anonymous sources…

You will find more orange cats at Watermark, with lots of other orange cat links:

Spike wishes you a great weekend:

[Hmm. There should be pictures of Spike there. I'm in a TypePad beta, and there have been a few glitches — I bet this is one of them. I'll submit a help ticket, and you should see him there soon.]

Here's a graceful photo of Spike, to hold you over:

    Hey, speaking of orange cats…
    Has anyone ever heard of painted cats? You can really paint your cat if you know how to do it correctly. Very interesting.

    Friends of mine have an orange cat and often mention that he has what they call “orange cat syndrome.” They maintain that orange cats have different temperaments from non-orange cats.
    But of course it doesn’t matter. My friends and I think all cats are wonderful, no matter what their color.
