Orange Cats have a reputation for being a little more outgoing than the average feline. While there’s no scientific evidence linking coat color to personality, they’re often labeled as bolder or more social, in part because many are male. That idea doesn’t hold up for Ambrosius, though, a female Ginger Farm Kitten who seems utterly unfazed by the much larger animals around her.
While she may be small, she’s fearless when it comes to spending time with her calf friends. Her wet-head, spiked hairstyle only adds to the charm, making it hard not to believe there’s something a little extra about Orange Cats after all.
You can see her hilarious look in a video shared by @staceyinyorkshire on January 19:
From the looks of it, Ambrosius is enjoying what can only be described as a calf-led spa day. Despite being just a fraction of their size, she appears totally at ease as the calves gently lick her head and nuzzle her face. At one point, she even returns the affection, leaning in and giving a calf a few licks of her own.

While some viewers expressed concern for her safety, Ambrosius’ mom, Stacey, reassured everyone that the little cat is more than capable of defending herself if she ever felt threatened. That doesn’t seem necessary here, though. This looks like her quiet moment of “me time”, and she’s clearly making the most of it.
Viewers couldn’t resist chiming in with jokes. @EmilytheFeral quipped, ‘This is how cowlicks are made.’ And @glebeviewhighlands, joked, ‘It must be a Ginger Cat thing… we’ve just adopted one that turned up on the farm, and he is exactly the same.’ Someone else teased, ‘What flavor is that cat?’

Cows Are Social Animals
Animals Australia notes that cows are highly social and “have best friends,” often seeking out specific herd mates and forming grooming partnerships. They describe calves as ‘cheeky’ and ‘super playful,’ using body language and vocalizations to signal friendly intent. That playful, social side is on full display in Ambrosius’ unlikely friendships.
Whether it’s the calves’ playful curiosity or her confident, go-with-the-flow attitude, the result is a scene that’s hard to forget. Science or not, this kitten makes a convincing case that Orange Cats tend to be a bit more bold.
