hello can someone tell me what kind of cat I have. thx

Welcome to TCS! 

If what I remember is correct; Zilla is a Orange Tabby, domestic short hair.  I know there are others who can tell you for sure.  But whatever he is; he is gorgeous!!  This might have some interesting information on it for you too: http://www.thecatsite.com/a/what-breed-is-my-cat

Thank you very much for the reply, i really appreciate it. Ya he's a little ham..lol. I'll find out more about him. Any tips you can give me, i've never had a cat.
 

Hi there welcome along to TCS

He is absolutely gorgeous!

He is adorable! I love orange tabby boys, there just seems to be something special about them. I look forward to watching him grow up in the TCS family.

Do be sure to ask any questions you may have.  Cats are very different from any other domesticated animals, and their behaviors can be a puzzle to many new owners.

Red tabby. :lol3: Not orange... just don't want to bother Otto.

Some members may get this.

Welcome to TCS, & welcome to the "Orange tabby club."

As you can see I'm a meowmy to a orange tabby boy as well!  (well, Angel is a little more like ginger, I sometimes call him my "Gingy boy.")

But, Welcome!!!

He looks like the little female that we rescued. He's Domestic Shorthair, Orange Tabby.

Please show us another picture when he's fully grown so that his bone structure is more apparent. At this age it's not clear.

I always thought the name was orange tabby. (?)  And though I never planned, an orange tabby always seems to find his way to me. I've had 5 over the years. A female orange tabby is rare, they are almost always male. Here is Sam, getting comfortable next to Salvador.

Most people call them orange tabbies.  The "correct" genetic terminology is red tabby, I believe.  I've even seen them called yellow tabbies.  I have two (one a new foster we hope to adopt) and I believe all the positive stereotypes about their awesome, friendly personalities!    One in Five are female, including our new foster.  But our precious Leo is the more common male.

Your kitten is stinking adorable!  Also, light orange tabbies (which it looks like your might be) are sometimes called marmalade kitties.  Oh, and the breed is probably domestic shorthair.....a fancy way of saying "mutt" (or moggie, the cat term.)

Yes they are red, orange is not a cat colour term.
