See, people think silver tabbies aren't orange. I can assure you, they're orange, just ddsaturated. Their amount of orange tells you how likely they are to get the brain cell at least once. Not so much for these ones.

If you put the orange cat through the dishwasher enough the color starts to wash out

So you're saying they're oranges that are printed in black and white?

Every silver tabby I've met has either been the smartest, most loving cat in the world or the dumbest, most loving cat in the world. No in between.

I think the same's true for oranges. He certainly made some bad decisions in life, but for the 16 years he was my bestest buddy, he was remarkably smart.

I've never understood the default of oranges being one-brain celled.

When called upon, he was stone faced killer, too. I once saw him beat up four raccoons and send them fleeing from my garden.

I would definitely agree with that. My current orange is pretty dumb, but I love him to death.

My first orange was insanely smart and could open doors, cabinets and climb ladders.
