Neat looking cat (picture included)

This is my co-worker's cat. Aren't his eyes stunning? I've never seen a blue-eyed tuxedo. I didn't even know it was possible. I guess because he's a a mixed breed? Anyway, I just thought I'd share because it is so unique.

I don't recall seeing a blue eyed tuxie either. He sure is a handsome boy.

Wow how pretty! Very unique for sure.

Do you know if the cat is deaf? Blue eyes can sometimes mean a deaf animal.

I do agree the eyes look stunning especially on that black and white coloring.

He is beautiful! There is a breed of cat called the Ojos Azules that has blue eyes and comes in all coat colors. Thanks for sharing that picture, he is such a cutie! :)

White coat + blue eyes = deafness. Usually.

That beautifl boy might have some meezer in him...look at that muzzle! :D

[wolflady]

Woah! That is a totally cool looking cat! I love how his eyes are almost an aqua shade of blue! Definitely a looker, that one! ;)

I don't think he is, but I'm not sure. I didn't pay much attention but he seemed to respond to noises.

Deaf animals learn very quickly to respond to vibrations. Best way to find out if it's noise or vibration is sneak up behind the cat, or while sleeping and clap your hands loudly, or open a can of food, or something else that should get a reaction, watch to see if the ears flick or any other indication of hearing.

We tried that on one at work that appeared to respond to noise, but found out it was simply 'feeling' the vibrations of our footsteps or opening the cage, not the actual sounds.

WOW. JUST. WOW. He is gorgeous! I have a 'thing' for tuxies, but this one is very special! (Does he need a home?) tee hee ;)

He's beautiful and very unique! I have never seen a tuxie with blue eyes either :cool:

[momcat]

Now, that is one extremely beautiful and unique little kitty! Those eyes are really something else. How old is the kitty?

[.sarah]

I'm not sure if he is deaf. I'm familiar with deaf animals, I used to work at a vet as well :) His owner just asked me to take pictures of him for her, so I did. I didn't really ask any questions ;)


How old is the kitty?
I'm not sure. I can't even remember his name :o To be fair, she has over 40 cats, so it's hard to remember them all. About 35 of them are fosters though.

Very pretty indeed. And I love your Labs, btw.
