White Cats Deaf Eyes. The deaf ear is usually on the same side as the blue eye. While this could be true to some extent, it doesn’t make black and white cats that much different from other cats of the same breed.
These cats are not albino (which is a complete lack of all pigment), as they do have color in the irises of their eyes, and they may have color in their skin or in part of their haircoat. Albino cats (red eyes due to c gene or blue due to k gene) totally or partially white cats (due to the s gene) all white cats (due to the dominant w gene) However, that is not guaranteed.
One blue eye, you ask?
It is a myth that every white cat is deaf, or that white cats with blue eyes, green eyes, or one of each are always deaf. The other may be green, copper or brown. When the gene affects only one eye the cat will have odd eyes. Albino cats (red eyes due to c gene or blue due to k gene) totally or partially white cats (due to the s gene) all white cats (due to the dominant w gene)
