Gender stereotypes of cats may not be as pronounced as dog gender stereotypes, but there are a few cat gender stereotypes, whether connected to color, pattern, or breed or not.

Tortitude as a personality trait, is described as sassy, feisty, spunky, and demanding. This stereotype of male orange cats is basically the opposite of the Fiery Redhead trope commonly attributed to redheads humans, especially girls and women. Ginger cats, especially male ones in real life are often stereotyped as mellow, easygoing, and cuddly. Whereas red headed men and boys are most often portrayed as average Joes, geeks, nerds, or bullies, red-furred male cats in cartoons, common, and other fictional works are usually portrayed as heroic, nice, humble, or irascible. Just as ginger men are often seen as average, humble people or unattractive freaks, ginger women are usually feisty, impulsive, and sexy.

Conversely, redheaded girls and women as heroic characters are numerous. They are also portrayed as middle class or humble rather than rich.
