I have a friend (a human friend) who had color changing eyes While growing up they changed, and at one point they weren’t hazel, they were green and brown. Younger kids really got a kick out of that.

I think you’ll find there are some pretty passionate Labyrinth fans out there. So, quick trivia cram here: Jennifer Connelly played Sarah, the main character. And the little boy, Toby, was played by Toby (Froud). And JK Rowling borrowed the name “Hogwarts” from one of the characters’ mispronunciation of the name Hoggle (Sarah’s guide).
Theo & Sarai, Thanks… I always liked that movie but it has been several years since I saw it. The swamp scene and the whole labirinth… and watching Sarah grow up on screen very fun. I always wondered if Bowie and the girl(Jennifer Conneley) had some kind of thing going on as there was such chemistry between them.
Theo, We just watched “The Prestige” too. Bowie was great in it. Tesla was an amazing inventor and scientist. here is a little info on his time in Colorado Springs.(Teslas) http://www.pbs.org/tesla/ll/ll_colspr.html
It makes me happy to know that so many people out there love david bowie too! Seriously, I giggle at the mere mention of the man’s name.
And the “childhood injury” was a fight with his friend over a girl when he was 15. The friend was awearing a ring and punched bowie in the face… he only got prettier… Only Bowie…
mjr chapin, I’ve heard that a white cat with one blue eye is often deaf on the side of that blue eye, but can hear on the side with the green/brown/yellow eye. Weird, eh?
This is an absolutely gorgeous cat, although I don’t think s/he looks very much like David Bowie. They’re both extremely attractive, each in their own way. I’d like to sit down with this beautiful kitty in my lap, and watch Labyrinth
My Ziggy Stardust Kitty isn’t deaf, but I think he’s blind in his blue eye. I can slip a treat up on his green side, and he pounces right on it-on his blue side, he has to sniff a bit to find it.
My Violet is a (mostly black) tuxedo with one blue eye and one gold eye, and her vision and hearing seem unaffected. I’m told by her vet that “heterochromia” is much rarer in cats than in dogs.
Her kitty song goes:
“My fur is still furry
and my eye is still blue
So why don’t you skritch me
like you used to do?”
MAJOR David Bowie and “Labyrinth” fan here. I first saw “Labyrinth” in the theater when I was about the same age as Jennifer Connelly’s “Sarah,” and she was a character I really identified with, except at the end I was muttering, “She had the choice between David Bowie and the baby, and she chose the BABY?!?!”
“It’s a godawful small affair
To the cat with the floofy hair…”
“Cats who’ll give you anything
They bear the cross of coeur de leon…”
“Time and again I tell myself
I’ll take no more cats in
But the little green eyes are following me
Oh no not again
I’m stuck with a valuable friend
I’m fluffy, hope you’re fluffy too…”
(all apologies to David Bowie, who is The Man now and forever)
[Well done! Bright flash of light, but no singeing whiskers... Ed.]
I am abashed…I got so caught up in finding cat-compatible Bowie lyrics that I forgot to compliment Foz on his? her? beauteousness! Not only a gorgeous kitty, but a great photo as well.
Is there some genetic reason why white cats seem to two differently-colored eyes? I know this cat is only partially white, but when I was looking at pictures at an adoption site, I noticed two white cats with one blue and one green eye each.
This cat is beautiful, although I do have to say, I think it’s odd how humans we can look at an animal that has an imperfection and see how the animal is perfect.. but we cannot look at each other and see that even though we are imperfected we are perfect in our own way….
I think that this is probably a Van Cat. These cats are known as “Van cats” or “Van Kedisi” in Turkish. They are known for having white fur and mismatched eyes, and come from Turkey’s Van region. You can see the Wiki article here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Kedisi

This beauty took my breath away.

Kitty Stardust? Acaddin Sane? The Thin White Mew?
Erm… The Cat Who Fell To Earth?
Hypno-kitteh!
*Whahhhh!*
I JUST got the Planet Unicorn theme out of my head and now David Bowie! Thankyouverymuch!
Pretty kitters tho.
What beautiful eyes this kitty has. I could stare at them all day.
*sings* There’s a star-caaaaaaat waiting in the sky…
I would’ve thought soemthing along the lines of putting out fire with gasoline would be more appropriate.
And catlike.
Oooh, pretty!
I have a friend (a human friend) who had color changing eyes
While growing up they changed, and at one point they weren’t hazel, they were green and brown. Younger kids really got a kick out of that.
Ohhhh This Kitty Just OOOzes Bowie style.
The kitty could be in Labrinth… A fairy kitty. Hiding and waiting for Clair(I think was her name) to come by to help her find her little brother
what a gorgeous kitteh.
pet, pet pet, kiss,kiss,kiss, hug and etc..
“pounce magic pounce! Put that magic pounce on me…”

“one eye green and one eye blue” … so cute!!
“Sawah fwiend!” I love Labyrinth!
Ziggy Catdust – with Bowie cattitude. Gotta love those eyes!
Lurve Labyrinth! Sir Didymus! OMG the cutest toughest puppert ever.
Yes, this is a goblin king kitteh.
The Thin White Floof.
LOL, Lurk. Of course.
He was good as Nikola Tesla in “The Prestige”, too. (just watched the DVD over the weekend)
YEEEEEEEEEEEEE! (That’s…as coherent a response as I’ve got. DAVIDBOWIEKITTYLOVELOVELOVE!!!)

My all time favorite Bowie song Space Oddity.
This is Major Tomcat, Ground Control,
I’m spinning ‘cross the floor…
If this cat is wearing crotch-hugging, package-framing tights, I will positively DIE from Bowie overload.
Never gonna fall for
Modern love – fish inside me
Modern love – chicken: fried
Modern love – feed me Meow Mix on time!
(okay, it sucked, but it was my first try!)
Annie, since Jennifer Connelly was only around 16 at the time, I hope not!
Whoa, those are some funky eyes!
GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!

What a beautiful kitty! Blue and green were my wedding colors! LOL!
What a lovely cat! And yes Labyrinth is a great film (as is dark crystal):D
Can’t believe no one’s mentioned “Cat People”
See these so blue and green
I can stare for a thousand years
Colder than the moon…
Lilith, I mentioned them earlier, quoting the song.
However it was lost in the rush of Labyrinth-nostalgia. BTW, who else loved that inchworm? “Come inside, meet the missus. Have a cuppa.”
Oh Litith , I am with you gurl—
those who feel me near
close the blinds
and change their minds
” ‘allo!”
“Excuse me, did you just say hello?”
“No! I said ‘allo! but tha’s close enough… Come inside and meet the Missus!”
I so know what movie I’m putting on tonight.
EYE BOOGER!
/pick pick pick
I DOUBLE-DARE you to blink …
Mostly trivia, but white cats with 2 blue eyes are generally deaf; they have developed the mismatched eyes for better survival. Rare in other cats.
WOW two different colored eyes.
It makes me happy to know that so many people out there love david bowie too!
Seriously, I giggle at the mere mention of the man’s name.
And the “childhood injury” was a fight with his friend over a girl when he was 15. The friend was awearing a ring and punched bowie in the face… he only got prettier… Only Bowie…

So does this owl turn into an equally cool-looking barn owl and fly away…? Just don’t feed him beans or you might end up in the Bog of Eternal Stench!

Ack, I mean CAT turn into a barn owl…*sigh* It’s all rainy here and it’s making me sleepy and mentally uncoordinated…
–TwoDragons
This is an absolutely gorgeous cat, although I don’t think s/he looks very much like David Bowie. They’re both extremely attractive, each in their own way. I’d like to sit down with this beautiful kitty in my lap, and watch Labyrinth

Mewy Christmas Mr Lawrence!

Stopping now…
We could be feral, for only one day…
Mmm, David Bowie… Mmm, pretty kitty-cat… Mmm, Labyrinth…

uhmmm, apologies, you’re gonna have to scroll down further than I’d realized…
A most beauteous feline. My wish is that it were mine.
Shouldn’t it be … “stherious moonlight”?
[Why, I do believe you are correct. Fixed! - Ed.]

(apologies to Hank Williams, Sr.)
ur cat is beautiful!! i love everything about this cat.
Man, oh man what a beautiful cat! I just love the eyes, fur must be very soft!
*happy sigh*
Oh poop. someone already got Major Tomcat. My left eye is blue, and there’s nothing I can do…
If you should fall into my arms, I’d snorgle you like a kitteh…
I feel the purrs rumble, loud as thunder…
I kill the paper bag, but things don’t really change…
sorry. the good ones were taken.

an animated video of the song. No kittehs though.
ps: Planet Unicorn hey!
Actually, Jennifer Connoly was 13 when she made Labyrinth. (Sorry, movie geek check!)
My cat Cheez N Crackers is the same way!
http://aycu13.webshots.com/image/19332/2000064163677126766_rs.jpg
JNO – Awwww, Cheez N Crackers is so cute!!
Those eye are kinda weird looking.
We’re the Maine Coon squad and we’re coming to town, beep beep!
[Very nice, LG. Turn to the right. - Ed.]
What a beautiful cat. (Sorry, dull posting but true!)
isn’t this cat a Turkish Van?
I always thoughtthat was a beautiful breed
anyone know if it’s true that they swim?
thought I would answer my own question–check out http://www.swimmingcats.com

Soo, I feel like an eedjit ’cause I don’t “get” most of the comments. May I offer my humble opinion that this is a beautiful kitter cat?
I had a cat with two different color eyes like that also and solid white and he was deaf!! Alot of people told me there was a connection.
My kitty Sammo is a huge white kitty with eyes just like this one! He’s not deaf though, just very needy.I lurve him.
YitzMom — there’s just an awful lot of Bowie lyrics banging around in peeps’ heads.
You have a page and spectacular photographies.
Congratulations
I am abashed…I got so caught up in finding cat-compatible Bowie lyrics that I forgot to compliment Foz on his? her? beauteousness! Not only a gorgeous kitty, but a great photo as well.
So Teho, are you going to give him teh Beep?
LG — I hadn’t planned to, but I *did* catch your reference.
wow… eyes.
so pretty!
WOW! (I wanted to say something more profound than just WOW, so…) allure, attract, beguile, bewitch, cajole, captivate, delight, draw, enamor, enrapture, ensorcell, enthrall, entrance, fascinate, grab, hex, hypnotize, inveigle, kill*, knock dead*, knock out*, magnetize, mesmerize, please, possess, send*, slay*, spell*, take*, tickle, tickle pink*, transport, turn on*, vamp, voodoo, wile, win, win over, WOW*
*bows, anticipating thunderous applause*
Stands Up and Begins applauding MusicChick2 for her fine vocabulary and usage of it to describe this adorable snorgable KitteH
*whispers politely* Thanks Annie! But I DID have help… the thesaurus tab on http://www.dictionary.com.
What, no references to “Practical Magic”? You know, where the girl wishes for a man with one green eye and one blue, thinking he won’t come?
That’s certainly a handsome cat.
I’ve never seen an odd-eyed that wasn’t all white. Bee-yoo-tee-full!
Is there some genetic reason why white cats seem to two differently-colored eyes? I know this cat is only partially white, but when I was looking at pictures at an adoption site, I noticed two white cats with one blue and one green eye each.

I love this kitty she is so beautiful and that stare. SO intense. IT is the “You will feed me that entire can of tuna” stare.
Ah to cuddle with this cat… and David Bowie… that would be heaven…
i am close to obsessed with teh Bowie. THANK YOU MEG. just…thank you. XD it was so much fun reading the comments.
btw Kaci you sound just like me! i am also reduced to giggling fangirl status at the mention of Teh Bowie.
