The Orange Princess Wore Pearls and a Lace Ruff Like a Little Lion
A golden hood studded with pearls rests on the head of this fluffy orange cat, and below it a wide lace collar spreads like a fan across her shoulders, with several strands of pearls draped across it. Her gown is a deep teal velvet covered in gold roses. The amber eyes are round and gentle, and the fur around her cheeks is thick like a lion's mane. The background is dark and plain, leaving her glowing orange coat to warm the whole painting. Princess Marigold is sweet, dignified and absolutely fluffy.
Orange cats, often called ginger or marmalade cats, are known for friendly and sometimes goofy personalities, though every cat is an individual. Most orange cats are male because of how the coat color is inherited. Long fur needs regular brushing to prevent mats, especially around the neck and belly, and a gentle comb works well. Many orange cats love food, so measure meals and use puzzle feeders to keep them lean. Fresh water, scratching posts and daily play help keep any indoor cat happy. Ask your vet about the best diet and about keeping that thick coat comfortable in warm weather.
The pearls, the lace, the gold cap: a princess in her full finery. Underneath it all she is still a soft, purring cat who would love a warm lap.
