That is a good question!Look, I realize that abstract personal conversations don't translate to a wider audience and all, but this came up in a conversation today, and I had a ready answer that, frankly, is suspect.

A mirror is the color of whatever it's reflecting. Put an orange cat in front of it, and presto there's a bunch of orange color.
