If a cat is Bb/dd/Aa/tt, what is its likely phenotype?

In cats hair color is a sex-linked trait. Black hair is due to a dominant allele (B) and orange hair is due to a recessive allele (b). Heterozygotes are calico. If a calico female is mated to an orange male, what are the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring?

In cats, black and orange fur color show codominance and is determined by a gene located on the X chromosome. Like humans, female cats are XX and male cats are XY. a. What are the genotype(s) of a black male cat? What are the genotype(s) of an orange female cat? b. Please draw the Punnett square for the cross between these 2 cats.
