ROFL.    What did you say his name is again?   Damien?   :clap:      (Seriously though, he is gorgeous).
thank you for your compliment on Damien. You will have to decipher for me what ROFL stands for! I'm not into social media so I'm not up to date on a lot of what the initials stand for, so kindly educate me on what this means. Thank you. I'm sure it's amusing to some people that everyone is not up to speed.

OMG! He is gorgeous! He looks quite a bit like my Keeker. Same big golden eyes and always has 'that look' on his face.

Yes, I've often admired Keeker. He is a real beauty! Paul's eyes look gold in the photo but they actually are mostly green. I love gold eyes in cats though.

Shauvon, I am thinking that, because his eyes are glowing, he has a haunting look about him and so did the little boy Damien in The Omen.  I'm sure it wasn't meant to be an insult, but simply a good natured jest. Many of us refer to our cat's glowing eyes as 'demon eyes'. Please, don't be offended. Thanks.

These are some pics of my little funny-face, Darby. He was completely white when he was born, but over time, developed all kinds of interesting markings on his face. He was a foster that was born in my home with two siblings, but I grew so attached to him and his brother that I ended up keeping them both. His eyes are so pale blue-gray, they almost look white at times.

Darby is so beautiful. Those eyes! I've never seen that color before - they're gorgeous.

he looks like he might be a little pointed, that is having Siamese in him and thus also the blue eyes. Siamese cats are born white and develop points later in life. This one is mostly some other colored cat with a bit of Siamese mixed in. What is peculiar are the tufts at the end of the cat's ears, not quite lynx ears and definitely not Main Coon ears. Nevertheless, a really cute cat, enjoy him the way he is.

I have had people ask me if he might be part Siamese. His mother was a tame stray that ended up at one of the feral feeding stations that our rescue group maintains. His mother was a beautiful calico, his brother is black and white, and his sister was a tortie. No telling what his father was. His tail is brown and he has some brown shading on his back. Perhaps a Siamese whose points ended up in the wrong places? :) Nonetheless, I think he is adorable and he and his brother are the sweetest kittens. I already had two cats and was not looking for more, but I couldn't bear to part with them.

I would say, just by looking at him, he is a domestic short hair and definitely has a lot of calico coloring in him. Blue eyes are common in predominantly (solid) white cats and in cats with pointed markings and since your cat is predominantly white, it's understandable he has blue eyes. It's impossible to tell with strays what their lineage is, so there is always the possibility of a pointed breed being in the mix. Whatever he has in his genes, it works! He is gorgeous!
