Many thanks to Salamander for the link!

P.S. I think that #15 may actually be a sheep.

In case anyone is wondering...

Now you know what Heterochromia Iridum is.

It is interesting that most of these cats are white. That probably means that they are deaf too, or wil eventually go eaf.

Ping.
Reminded me of Woobie Squeaks and Pooka Rue.
Even though Rue was not an odd eyed kitty.

We had an all white odd eyed kitty named Woobie Squeak.
(Best not to ask.)
He acted like he was blind in one eye.
He wasn’t, he just liked acting like a jerk.
“What? You mean you wanted my attention? *yawn* Tend me, human servant.”
The rotten cute little booger.

I’m not asking. Serious cattitude, that one.

He was also the last shoulder cat I “spoke with”.

I’m envious - none of my furbabies are shoulder cats.

Woobie Squeak was quite some years back.
I haven’t had a shoulder cat since.

Though I do have a “nightcap hat cat” who will curl around my head as I sleep.
At least he isn’t a “headcrab cat”..

No need - we're already their zombies.

I read that they’re also often deaf on the blue-eyed side.
