Hello Meet Tommy...

Hi everyone!!! Omg this is my very first post of any kind that I have ever done!!! Lol I usually just research but never be the one to post to a thread. So I'm really hoping I get some responses of any kind
So I want to share quickly about how I ended up adopting a kitten. Me and my hubby decided to visit a local pound/animal shelter for the first time ever in hopes of finding a cute puppy.. No luck, so we decided to check out the rest of the place with no desire to adopt a cat, at all! So then we see Tommy!! Tiny little white fur-ball. He looked up and we noticed his 2 different color eyes! That's it he was ours! Lol u must know I have never been a cat person! But this guy is so unique both looks and personality I feel so lucky to have him in my life! He is so sweet and loves attention, but from only me and then hubby. He's a big woos to people he doesn't know or trust and kids make him uncomfortable, and again it's the trust he doesn't feel stable around kids they either jump or bump him or jerk around lol. Anyways I just wanted to describe his personality to help identify his breed. He's friendly with other cats and playful. He doesn't go outside and prefers the inside! Sleeps with us, and likes to talk instead like others cats meow.. He's all white, short hair, 1blue,1green eye. What do u guys think?? Or could he just be a mutt since he was in the shelter? See photo thank you guys!!!! Please respond, I will be waiting

Welcome to TCS!     Tommy is absolutely adorable - I can see why you fell in love with him at first sight!   He did his job well, converting you and your husband into cat lovers.     Now he can rest on his laurels.  I don't know much about cat breeds so hopefully someone else will be able to answer your questions about him.  He is probably a white domestic short hair but the different colored eyes might give a clue to his background.  This is a very friendly site and a great resource for information about cats so feel free to post about him as much as you'd like.  And congratulations on your first post - I hope it is the first of many!  

Yaaay!!!! Thank You for your response!!! Means the world to me as silly as that sounds lol!!!
Thank you for the compliments! Wow it must be a coincidence or Tommy is feeling the love in his sleep, I snapped a pic :

Oh, he's so adorable!   I had a white cat with long hair, one blue eye and one green.  She was just beautiful.  

We have a forum where you can post a photo of Tommy and ask about his breed:  http://www.thecatsite.com/f/5809/describing-cats-what-does-my-cat-look-like

Welcome to TCS.    

Welcome to TCS. Indeed, an adorable kitten with fascinating eyes, nobody could resist it. Well photographed too.

I could be wrong about this, so someone jump in to correct me if I am incorrect, but I believe that frequently when white cats have the same colored eyes, they are deaf. So having different colored eyes is good for albino cats. My mom had a stray tomcat that she fed for years that looked a lot like your Tommy. If Tommy does decide he wants to go outside and sit in the sun, be careful because white cats can sunburn. He is a lovely cat.

I've read conflicting ideas about that theory.
