Yes, they can. I've actually had an orange cat that was a female. I think maybe you mean calico cats. Is that right? Calicos are exclusively female. There is no such thing as a calico male. Hopefully that answers your question.

Yes, an orange cat can definitely be female. There is only one color combination that lets you know the cat's gender - if it's calico (another name for tortoise shell) it is definitely female.

Hi there...certainly. The genetics of the orange tabby makes the possibilities for 75% male and 25% female for that colouring so it is common.
Here's a website thate explains this even further: http://www.westcoastcat.com/scratchins/orangecats.html
