About cat color palettes

Fur palettes: ginger, tabby grey, tortoiseshell and cream. This page collects 24 cat color palettes, each one generated and then filtered so that every scheme is actually usable in a real design rather than just pleasant to look at.

Most cat schemes anchor somewhere around dusty rose (#af8c6a), a warm hue sitting near 30 degrees on the color wheel at roughly 30% saturation. The palettes below span a lightness range of about 66 points, which is wide enough to give you a background, a mid-tone and a text color from the same set. Neighbouring hues that sit side by side on the color wheel for a calm, cohesive feel.

Colours sampled from cat tend to be less saturated than people expect, because real light is never pure. Keeping one desaturated swatch in the palette is what makes the whole thing feel photographed rather than invented.
