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 ...

Once the removal of the corneal sequestrum is complete, cats will usually remain on lubricating eye drops for the rest of their lives.
The coat color must be warm brown, typically reddish-brown, with no obvious tabby markings (note that kittens will always show markings but they resolve as the cat ages and dissolve completely by one year). Whiskers must also be brown and the eye color green. The head should be slightly longer than wide, but should never appear like a wedge.
