Ojos Azules (Spanish: [ˈoxos aθˈules], 'Blue Eyes') was a breed of shorthaired [1] [2] domestic cat with unusual blue or odd eyes [1] caused by a dominant blue eye (DBE) genetic mutation. The breed came in all coat colors; however, only particolors ( bicolors and tricolors ), colorpoints , and intermediate colors with a characteristic white ...
A cat which has both an orange and non-orange gene, Oo, and little to no white spotting, will present with a mottled blend of black/red and blue/cream, reminiscent of tortoiseshell material, and is called a tortoiseshell cat. An Oo cat with a large amount of white will have bigger, clearly defined patches of black/red and blue/cream, and is ...
A bad hair day isn’t exclusive to humans. Animals, unfortunately, get them too. And these poor pets didn’t just end up with a few tangled fur strands. They went through some unforgettable (and ...
A rare predominantly black cat with odd eyes. The odd-eyed colouring is caused when either the epistatic (recessive) white gene or dominant white (which masks any other colour genes and turns a cat completely solid white) [3] or the white spotting gene (which is the gene responsible for bicolour coats) [4] prevents melanin granules from reaching one eye during development, resulting in a cat ...

In some breeds of cats congenital sensorineural deafness is very common, with most white cats (but not albinos) being affected, particularly if they also have blue eyes. [1] The gene responsible for this defect is the KIT gene , and the disease is studied in the hope that it may shed light on the causes of hereditary deafness in humans. [ 8 ]
