Got six orange cats in your shelter?
TELL PEOPLE!
Rangas rule the walk
Ginger-haired humans are said to be rare, perhaps endangered along with tigers and Richmond supporters.But if a clowder of six “ranga” cats that have dominated the Hobart Cat Centre this week is anything to go by, Garfield look-alikes have at least some of their nine lives left.
Cat centre manager Lyndell Whyte said that in the past week or two it had been raining ginger cats and all are up for adoption.
Ms Whyte said that Bonnie, the sole female in the six, was helping to bust the myth that all ginger cats were toms, despite genes that dictate that there are a lot more male gingers than female.
These guys have taken a possibly unremarkable event and with a little imagination, made it news. If I were going to be *really* picky, I would say the photo on the article could have been cuter; but this was funny, light-hearted and no mention of ‘having’ to kill the cats anywhere. Just awesome!
