57 Gorgeous Cats With Heterochromia Iridum

These cats have eyes that are each a different color, a condition commonly referred to as “odd-eyed,” or, scientifically, “Heterochromia Iridum.” These special kitties may be odd, but they’re also some of the most beautiful and magical-looking creatures on the planet. posted on August 8, 2012 at 3:31pm EDT

anyone else notice that aside from number 30, they are all mostly or at least partially white cats? I am kind of curious if that is related to the different colored eyes

So here’s the thing. I love animals, I really do. I mean, I’m an aardvark, for god’s sake! But I do wonder if these pictures that humans fawn over do more harm than good with regards to interspecies relations. We sit here ogling pictures of animals with no inquiry into their personality or consideration of what’s behind those fluffy tails and pointy ears. Isn’t this the type of objectification the women’s movement called attention to?

I’m just gonna be “that guy” and point out that David Bowie does not in fact have heterochromia. Instead, one of his pupils is permanently dilated due to a fight he was in when he was a teenager. It gives the appearance of being a different color, but the iris is still the same shade of blue as his other eye. That being said, these cats are awesome.

Number 18 looks like the offspring of drunken night between and lamb and a rabbit. Still cute but it threw me. Not to mention the person behind it is in their underwear. Hello Kitty.

Why not showcase some of the other types of heterochromia? Some types only affect one eye, be it a blue eye with a dark brown spot or the inner part of the eye being blue but brown on the outer bit. I actually know two people with this, as well, and unfortunately it’s sometimes a medical issue.
