Odd-Eyes/Color Change

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Maine Coon Cats : One Thread

I have a white male MC kitten who is 5 1/2 months old. He is an odd-eyed white. The blue eye is a pale blue. The 'yellow' eye is a murky dark yellow/green color. Is the yellow eye still changing color or are his odd eyes extra odd? When do the eyes finish changing color? He is adorable otherwise.

It can take several months for the kitten's final eye color to be established but if you are maybe hoping that both eyes will end up the same color, I think you will be out of luck! In fact, white cats with blue eyes are frequently deaf so hopefully the other colored eye has protected him from this problem. Have you tried to attract his attention by just making a sound (for instance, putting him in one room and then rattling his food container to see if he comes running)? I am sure his eyes will be beautiful....whatever color they end up!
