Mixed Monday Special: Chimera
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I have a rare treat for you guys today! One of my followers was so kind to anonymously share these photos of a very special cat with me.
This stunning boy is called Zuko. As you can perhaps see from the pictures and his split coloured face he is not only a male tortie (with white) but also blue and black at once!!
Blue is a dilution of black and usually a cat can visually only be one or the other (blue or black), but not both! 
Most likely Zuko is a chimera, meaning two (or more) separate embryos fused during pregnancy which resulted in a single cat with different sets of colour traits.
People often like to throw the word chimera around when it comes to split face torties, but in most of those cases it is being misused and simply a striking looking but otherwise normal expression of the tortie colouration. 
True natural occurring chimeras are quite rare and can only be confirmed with DNA testing. 
I am not aware that Zuko has been officially tested for chimerism so we can’t be 100% sure, but the combination of showing two otherwise non co-existing colours and being a male tortie makes him a much more likely candidate.
You might have seen my post about Narnia not too long ago, which has similar features. Narnia’s DNA tests are still ongoing for the moment, but he too might be a chimera cat.
Thank you very much again to my follower for sharing this very interesting cat with us!

Mixed Monday Special: Topaz Breed
The Topaz is a very new blue eyed cat breed which is in development by Iryna Merzlenko in Ukraine. It currently has experimental status with the WCF.
Blue eyed cats with very little or no white fur at all are usually very rare, but that’s exactly the goal of this breed. Thanks to a dominant blue eyed gene these cats can have any coat colour and still have striking blue eyes. Odd eyes with at least one blue eye are acceptable according to the breed standard as well.
As the breed is still so young the genetics behind the blue eyes have not yet been fully uncovered. It seems that homozygous cats whith large amounts of white increases the possibility of deafness. It also seems to produce extremely unusual markings and white distributions (see examples below).
