This is Simon. He's my sisters cat so I rarely have a chance to photograph him. His eyes are *so* unique. Has anyone ever seen eyes like this? I've seen eyes where they are different colors, but never interspersed like his are.
I was reading a little about cat eye colors and saw no mention of these kinds of eyes. I imagine they must be extremely rare. Here's an excerpt from this link:
Eye color is genetically related to coat color.
o Pointed cats always have blue eyes.
o White cats, and cats with a lot of white markings, can have:
+ blue eyes
+ green, gold, or copper eyes
+ or "odd-eyes" (one blue eye and one green or gold eye)!
o Other cats can only have green, gold, or copper eyes, not blue eyes. The most common eye colors are in the middle of the eye color spectrum (greenish-yellow to gold). The colors at the ends of the eye color spectrum (deep green or brilliant copper) are usually seen only in purebreds who have been selectively bred for extreme eye color, but they may sometimes appear in non-purebreds."
