Let's just paws here and contemplate a few facts ... one in particular. Ginger cats are predominantly male. The chances of having a female ginger cat are roughly 1 in 3,000. That's more than the chances of having a complete buffoon for a president but let's just stay with nice things for now. Adding to the fact of ginger cats very much mainly being toms, is the fact that male cats, even when neutered, still have a propensity to have padded faces (unfixed toms have facial padding to protect them from the many claw fights they are hard wired to have) ... where as female cats just do not have that padding, yes, I am saying the queens have prettier faces than toms, just like human girls do over human boys - there may be rare exclusions to that, obviously, but who is that pedantic ? Point I making is that memes should be proofread and carefully looked over BEFORE posting. The creator of the above meme went for 'SHE' as it applies to a car for some people, however 'IT' would have worked equally as well, AND would have been far more accurate ... or just accurate, as using 'she' meant if was wrong (look at his face) and thereby open to slight mocking scorn. I would never call my car a she, it goes like a bloke, sounds like a bloke, behaves like a bloke, and carries a bloke. My car IS a bloke.
For any readers contemplating knowing more about cats, calicoes are the opposite of gingers, in that they are nearly totally female, with the same odds, 1 in 3,000, of one of them being male. Should a calico cat be a male, it will be infertile. What was it Bruno Mars sang ? "If you don't believe me, just watch, if you don't believe me, just watch" ... the internet.
The chances of an orange cat being female are about one in five. https://www.npr.org/2025/05/16/1251782103/orange-cats-dna-color-mutation Calico males are very rare.
Sheesh.
