This cat would need absolutely no changes to show up in a movie as some kind of ancient fey trickster being
I wonder if they’re a chimera (i.e. started out as two embryos which fused, and has different genes depending on where you look).
Sure looks like it
That, or a photoshop. Since the dilution gene hits both colors, a tortie/calico can either be grey and cream or black(brown) and orange.
Yeah I was wondering if it was a photoshop, myself. So it’s really only possible for this pic to be a chimera or a photoshop, yeah? You’re saying this can’t be a tortie?
Yeah, as far as I’m aware (and I spend way too much time reading about cat coat genetics), that combination of colors could only happen in a cat with 2 unique sets of DNA. I would still call that a tortie, though.
That blue eye though, I don’t know enough about eye color genetics to confidently say, but the other features of the cat look like a Maine Coon, so it is possible that this cat came from a breder and there was intentional selection for eye color.
I have never seen a bright blue eye like that on an orange cat. I think Photoshop is definitely a possibility, but also, sometimes nature just does a wild artistic cat for all of us.
Looks like a Maine Coon, so probably came from a breeder, and while it’s not an area I’ve really dug into, it looks like there are some Maine Coon breeders producing cats with blue eyes. Could naturally be blue, but the brightness definitely seems artificial.
What’s a kai-mary-uh, precious?
Boil ‘em, mash ‘em, stick ‘em in a stew.
That’s clearly a Batman villain.
Such a pretty cat 😍
Looks like your printer ran out of ink there
Edit: cool cat, 11/10, would definitely love one like it
Jesus that’s a beautiful cat. And I didn’t even really like cats.
Kind of funny to be in a cat sub haha. :)
I see it on the All page.
The all page is the only one I use on lemmy. Every time I try to browse an individual community that I’m interested in it has like 3 posts from 2 weeks ago and nothing recent at all.
He looks like he may have… wares. If you have the coin.
Looks like the perfect being exists after all
This cat is amazing!!
Does this Cat have homophobia?
Wouldn’t know. Not my cat
Typo, or do you have a reason to suspect bigotry from the fine feline? 😉
Cat: Am I a punchline to you? I murder motherfuckers for a living Jessica
Closer to Halloween, and this consummate planeswalker does so for an unliving Jessica, no doubt.
Hoooooooo!
If that is a real image that damn well better be its name.
You can tell this cat was in an accident and had to get the front hood replaced.
Would have to meet the cat in person to truly judge its character. Interesting beastie if real though!
