Appearance
Similar to the Maine Coon, the Orange Shorthair has unique fur textures, two mottled patterns set to 65 transparency that allow the underlying ball color to show through slightly.

Their muzzles and paws are grouped together and will always match in color.

Behavior
In second gens, the scales are shifted causing some small differences in the build. These differences include thinner legs, a slightly different head and muzzle shape, and smaller irises in the kitten. [citation needed]

Trivia

 * Orange Shorthairs are one of the breeds that had real-life stuffed toys created of them to coincide with the original Catz game.
 * Though the breed is known as the Orange Shorthair, there is debate about whether this is what it was originally intended to represent. Petz.com describes the breed as "WIREHAIR aka Orange Shorthair,", which has led some to believe that it was supposed to represent the American Wirehair, a real curly-haired breed. However, the breed file in Petz II and onward contains the label  at the top of the adult LNZ, which seems to make more sense with the fluffy tail this breed possesses.
