What an adorable ginger cat - the tiger like face with little ruff going on are very cute. Those fluffy ears look good: how old, how large, and what are the paws and tail like? This information, and may be a photo or two more would help.

It's a male kitten, he's around 8 months or so now I think. He has a HUGE bushy tail and fluffy paws. He's not a very big kitten at the moment but he grows every day.
Yep gorgeous red cat ! Would be classed as a red mackerel tabby domestic long hair.
Most cats are not of any particular pedigree breed or even mix of breeds. About 97% of cats are domestic cats. Cats have not had as much human control over their breeding like dogs have had. Most cats have just random bred with other cats in the same area. So few if any have any pedigree ancestors.

A red mackerel tabby, or a red marmalade tabby is what I would call him. Your kitty looks very much like my Hoppi. I must get busy and post some pictures.Yep gorgeous red cat ! Would be classed as a red mackerel tabby domestic long hair.

As for my red marmalade girl, Hoppi is 10 years old, and long haired. She is very small, weighing only about 7 pounds at most. But like your kitty, she has all this long fur, and a long bushy tail.
She strayed up to our place when she was barely 8 weeks old. She does not have her right hind foot. We think that she got caught in one of those aluminum screen doors--the ones that have the pneumatic door closing devices--and that she lost her foot then. Then her owner(?) then threw her out in the woods. Thank goodness she found us.

I'd love to see some pictures! We originally got Tyler off a farmer a few months back, we saved his life. As farmers do he was just going to stick him in a plastic bag and chuck him in the river, so we saved him from that! We originally thought Tyler was a girl, but we found out how wrong we where when we went to get him spade.
Oh my, that does sounds terrible, poor Hoppi! Well at least she's in a caring home now!
Orange, marmalade red, ginger...... Tyler is super CUTE!
What a lucky cat Tyler was that you came along in time. And Hoppi, very lucky @AngelinaCat, how cruel some people are to throw away a defenceless creature when it is injured like that.

Aha! It's hilarious when he hangs off the door, he does it to get a better view of my dog Bonnie.
He's a silly little kitten, and Bonnie's terrified of him, which is rather amusing considering the size difference! I hope he won't be too big! I can just handle him as he is now when he's lay out on top of my chest haha!
