    Have a look on FaceBook for the Last Hope Animal Charity's page or throught their website www.lasthope.ie as I know they have some kittens who are almost ready for their new homes and I seem to recall them having a ginger kitten although I don't know if it was male or female.
    It'd be great to think that another poor little kitten who had a rough start in life had found a loving home.
    Good luck.

    You'l be very hard pressed to find a female ginger kitten, it was explained on here recently the genetics behind it but long story short genetically they are very uncommon. If your dead set on a female best to look for another colour or settle with a ginger male.

    I have 2 ginger females cats here. One is 10 months and the other is 4 years old.
    So its not unheard of.

    They're not that rare - but it's a sort of 1 in 100 stat for ginger females. Tortoiseshell males are closer to 1 in 1000.

    Cute kitten. But they should stay with their mothers until they are 8 weeks old. That ad is saying they are ready to go but are only 6weeks old. Not very good.

    We have three ginger kittens, 2 female,1 male born to a tortoiseshell mother who ate her first batch of kittens, the mother was rescued from her mother who killed three batches of her own kittens. Good news is the three ginger kittens are now 7 weeks old ,doing brilliantly, we had the mother on 24hr murder watch for weeks in the kitchen, proves there is hope if you persevere in life. All kittens reserved for new homes . Just thought Id share my story.
