My cat has one eye of sky blue color and other green, is it a rare breed? if I sell it what should I demand.?

Question

The color of my cat is pure white, I wonder the difference in color of both eyes is a biological defect or some kind of new breed as I have never seen such a cat, I have 8 cats these days and this is the cutest one. Please any body if has any knowledge about it!!

I am not going to sell this cat, I just want
to know the price for feeling good in case it is a rare precious thing which it is not as every body is saying so. Some time facts are cruel.

Answer 1

This is an odd eyed white cat. Make sure it isn't deaf or blind first by snapping in front and back of his head to see if his ears move and he stares at your fingers. If he can see and hear then theres nothing wrong with him. If hes the cutest of all your cats then don't sell him. Why would you want to do this anyways. It makes no sense to get him if your just going to give him away. And these cats aren't rare but if you are going to sell it then you should just demand about $200-$400

Answer 2

I have an odd-eyed white kitty, too. She was a feral, but now is a spoiled rotten housecat! In terms of the entire cat population, an odd-eyed white is rare. In one essay on cat genetics that I read, it was estimated at less than one percent of the total population. All I know is-- I wanted one, and it took four months to find my kitty.

Some purebred cats are odd-eyed whites, such as the Turkish Angora. Probably you have a regular domestic mixed breed, though. Not worth much in monetary value, I'd suppose, even though they're beautiful! (Heck, mine came from behind a convenience store.) They are very high up on the list of desireable cats for adoption, though. The workers at the Humane Society here told me that the white cats are usually adopted so fast that they don't even get listed on their Web site.

Answer 3

It is not a new breed. More then likely your cat is a domestic. A pure white cat that has one blue eye and one green eye is called a "odd-eyed white". One of my boys is an "odd-eyed white" too.

I don't know why you would sell your cat but if the cat needs a new home for whatever reason you should put him or her up for adoption, not sell him or her. However, if you did decide to sell your odd-eyed cat (again, I recommend you don't sell) you wouldn't get any more for the cat then any other color.

Answer 4

Actually this is a very common occurrence in pure white cats. You may not be aware that a white cat with two blue eyes, which occurs less frequently, is likely to be deaf. Having one green eye and one blue is somehow genetically linked to the ability to hear, in white cats.

Answer 5

Eye color is an inherited trait. Having one blue eye and one green eye is a genetic mutation. It happens sometimes, but not real often.

In the 1990s I had a white cat with one blue and one green eye. She was beautiful, and I know your cat is too.

White cats in particular, can also inherit another genetic mutation--they can be born deaf. Check your kitty by making sounds, and see if she turns her head to you or ignores you. If she is deaf, contact your vet to learn how to take care of a special needs cat.

Answer 6

A cat's breed is based on it's coat.

A difference in eye color is just a gene fluke.

Answer 7

That is actually common in Pure white cats. Make sure your cat is not deaf, that seems to be common in cats that have different colored eyes.

Answer 8

That's normal for a white cat; they can either have blue eyes or eyes that are coloured green/yellow. Or they can have one of each and be odd eyed.

Answer 9

They don't command high prices, you've got an ordinary 'odd eyed white'. Sorry, it's a regular cat. Nothing rare.

Answer 10

These cats are known as "odd eyed whites" in the cat breeding world, and are reasonably common..
