This is not meant to be discriminatory. Every cat is beautiful, but which which color do you personally prefer?
I personally like orange cats or orange/white mix, but I couldn’t find one at the rescue that was set up at PetSmart so I was depressed, lonely and I was desparate for the love of cats got so I just adopted a tabby brown cat.
My least preferred colors are pure white or pure black cats, but I somehow still like a mix white/black cat. I mean, if one showed up to my door and was friendly and had a great personality, I’d take him/her in, but I probably wouldn’t be looking for those color of cats if I were looking to adopt a cat in a shelter/rescue.
Are you being a bad person by picking cats based on their color? To be honest, if there was an orange cat at the PetSmart I’d likely not have chosen my tabby brown. I kinda feel horrible for thinking this way, but I mean, it’s just like this weird feeling, this attachment to specific color cats. I just loved orange cats so much. But once I gotten to know my tabby brown, I now prefer tabby browns as much as orange cats.
Again, every cat is beautiful, but I just have weird preferences for some over others for some odd reason.
Edit: To be clear, I was looking for ANY cats, but I wanted an orange one if possible, but if not, I would’ve taken ANY cat. I didn’t care that much, I just wanted some cuddles with a warm little fellow living being.
I’ve had a lot of cats as pets over my life to date.
Three of my favourite were all black kitties.
Then there was my dark tortoiseshell who will always have a special place in my heart.
Um… all of them.
Torties are the best. Obviously. Hands down. All the tortitude that spills out of them is hilarious.
I forgive you lol, and your cat doesn’t have to because it will never know. Nothing wrong with liking a certain kinda cat. I like cats with piercing yellow eyes
As long as you’re not choosing based on superstition i dont think its wrong personally
I think my favourite is jet black for cat fur. But being honest I like the coat of bengals the most, and they’re a tabby type. Lilac burmese running up second.
You do you. People choose cats for whatever reason. Some don’t want long haired, some want a specific sex, some want them to be friendly and won’t adopt a cat that doesn’t greet them first. What matters is that you love and take care of your pet.
I like being owned by black kitties too!
Hairless cats are my favorite. So pink I guess.
I like to think that I am a good person…
Calico. And no.
Having a preference is not morally wrong. It’s part of being human. I happen to have a strong affinity for all black cats. But I am still a cat lover at heart and my guess is so are you.
Why would preferring certain cat colors be wrong? Are you not a human?
I also like orange cats. A friend of mine had an orange kitten and I told her I wanted him.  When I went to her house to meet the kittens, a little gray one climbed on my lap and fell asleep. She was the one I eventually took home.
Giving a rescue cat a good home is a good thing to do. It doesn’t matter why you feel drawn to one cat over another.
I like black because it accentuates the goofy faces cats make sometimes. I also just like the way they look in general.
Practically, it’s easy to see when there’s something in their fur and when it needs brushing.
As a bonus, they’re easy to adopt. Every shelter seems to have a bunch.
I love all cats, but I’m especially fond of how goofy black cats look. Like eyes floating in a shadow. They’re hilarious.
There’s nothing wrong with having a preference. At the end of the day, when you adopt a pet - you are saving their life and dramatically changing yours. How you come to that choice is deeply personal. It doesn’t matter if it’s superficial or whatever, least of all to the cat. As long as you give them love, warmth, food and shelter.
 I don’t really have a preference on breed, I just care of they’re sociable and friendly. I do have a preference for girl cats. My dearly departed cat was a girl, and my wife’s cat (very much alive) is a dude. Love him, but it’s not the same.
Black cat fur is easiest to conceal on my clothing without spending a half hour lint-rolling everyday. That’s about the only preference I maybe have.
I love all cats, they’re all little weirdos. I don’t much like the idea of preferencing people and animals for purely cosmetic reasons, and the idea of assigning personality types to coat colours also makes me uncomfortable. I just don’t know if there’s any evidence for that correlation, and the concept hits too close to home for me. I also am not a fan of breeding for cosmetics.
I still enjoy the images that come from oneorangebraincell, because I like seeing any cats doing silly things.
Nothing wrong with having a preference, but don’t exclude any kitty just because it’s not the right color you may miss out on the best kitty ever.
We went to a cat shelter for a specific black and white kitten. We went home with his orange and white brother. His name is Gizmo.
You could have chosen both!
