What is a Tangerine?

A tangerine is an orange-colored citrus fruit.

They are slightly smaller in size than oranges, and their skin peels off more easily. Their flavour is less sour and more neutral than that of an orange.

It is actually a type of mandarin orange.

The flavour is commonly used in bottle juice or soft drinks in North America. [and is my favorite flavor Lifesaver]

The number of seeds in each segment (carpel) varies greatly.

It is also a ferocious tiger-kitten-cat whose poop does not smell anything like citrus.

Somehow it is appropriate that Caleb has presented me with the stinkiest cat that ever lived.
