Breeds of cats with big eyes: description and care features


These cats have huge eyes

  • Fact 1:
    The Devon Rex has big eyes, that's a fact.
  • Fact 2:
    Snoopy the cat (Internet star) has big round eyes
  • Fact 3:
    The expression “eyes are the mirror of the soul” almost directly applies to representatives of the cat breed
  • Fact 4:
    Animals do not have volumetric vision, that is, they do not see objects in three-dimensional space, like humans

The most popular type of pet is cats. Fluffy and smooth, affectionate and independent, freedom-loving and “sofa-loving”, mongrel and “blue blood”, but always loved and desired. For any owner, his four-legged friend is the smartest and most beautiful. And everyone chooses a kitten for a family according to their own criteria. Some people need their fur not to fall out, some want them to catch mice, others are bursting with pride from paying four or even five figures for a little bundle of happiness. And for some, appearance is important. Such people usually look for big-eyed cats with an expressive, almost magnetic look.

Eyes are the mirror of a cat's soul

The size and location of a cat's eyes depends on the breed. The look of some individuals is so mesmerizing that sometimes you lose touch with reality. It seems that the representative of extraterrestrial civilizations himself is looking at you, studying and hypnotizing. The expression “eyes are the mirror of the soul” almost directly applies to representatives of the cat breed. Sometimes a look “from the inside” makes a much greater impression on a person than their own ability to see the cat itself.

Felinologists (specialists in the study of cats) claim that these animals do not have three-dimensional vision, that is, they do not see objects in three-dimensional space, like people. In addition, they are also farsighted and may not be able to discern what is happening under their own noses. However, for humans, such shortcomings in a cat’s visual organs do not make it any less attractive.

There are three types of eyes:

  • round;
  • almond-shaped;
  • slanted.

Representatives of the first two types can boast of particularly large, beautiful and expressive eyes. By the way, if you want an animal with a certain eye color, then you should take into account the color of the kitten, it directly determines what shade of the “saucer” you will look at later.

Top 10 big-eyed breeds or the most “soulful” cats

Remember the cartoon about Snoopy? This character is beloved by both children and adults. A velvety prankster with huge sweet eyes who loves hugs. The prototype of the multi-hero was a cat of a real existing breed - exotic shorthair. Although the huge bottomless eyes of “Snoopy” are not considered the largest in the world. Perhaps because the animals themselves are small.

So who then are these mysterious creatures with a wide soul? After all, according to a popular expression, the soul should be wider, the larger the size of the eyes? Here are eight of the biggest big-eyed four-legged creatures known to man.

Body structure

  1. Head: round skull, rounded forehead, full, well-defined cheeks. The chin is of strong construction with a wide jaw, a short, flattened nose.
  2. The ears are low set, compact, rounded, with tufts of long hair at the ends.
  3. The eyes are large, round, widely spaced, the color and intensity of the color depends on the type of breed.
  4. The neck is short and strong.
  5. The body is muscular with a wide chest. The neck and back are massive.
  6. The limbs are short, massive, thick bones. The feet are large and round with tufts of long hair between the toes.
  7. The tail is short, very fluffy, curved at the end, proportional to the rest of the body.
  8. The fur is long, fluffy, soft and silky, around the neck there is a pronounced collar with not very long hair sticking out like a hedgehog.

No. 1. These funny Persian cats

The Persian cat is one of the most popular and widespread big-eyed breeds. Over many decades, their appearance has undergone significant selective changes, but one thing has remained unchanged - long, thick, very soft and pleasant to the touch wool. Today it is a well-proportioned animal with a flexible tail and a flattened muzzle with a snub nose button. The cat's eyes are large, round in shape, with an unblinking, attentive gaze. Small ears and an upturned nose make the Persian's face funny, childishly cute and spontaneous.

Persian cats are quite calm, even phlegmatic. This trait makes life very easy for their owner. Caring for a luxurious fur coat requires a lot of time and effort. It would be very difficult to wash and scratch a restless cat. And this is simply necessary. To keep the coat healthy, it requires daily brushing. And also special shampoos to maintain hair, vitamin supplements and lots and lots of love. There is nothing to compare with the aesthetic pleasure when you look into two bottomless pupils looking out from a fluffy woolen cloud.

Persians: a look from time immemorial

Big-eyed and fluffy Persian cats are a gift from the East: they came to Europe from Persia (present-day Iran) about 400 years ago.

Large and round, like saucers, widely spaced bright eyes are one of the signs of the Persian breed. Depending on the color of the animal, they can be orange, copper, bright green or blue. Breeders all over the world strive to ensure that the eyes of a purebred Persian are large, round, expressive and shine like stars. And honestly, their efforts were crowned with success, you can see this for yourself - we have collected for you a selection of photographs of the most titled Persian cats. Admire their luxurious coat and incredibly beautiful eyes.

No. 2. Scots charm

Scottish Fold cats or Scottish Fold are one continuous bundle of fluffy childish spontaneity and touchingness. And all thanks to the large round eyes, filled with naive surprise. Add here miniature ears folded in a couple of rows and that’s it, you want to squeeze this creature and be touched endlessly.

The entire color scheme of the iris depends on the shade of the coat. Different subspecies of Scots have their own. Let’s say that harlequins will have beautiful tea-colored eyes, and black lop-eared ones will delight you with orange lakes. Consider this nuance when choosing a breed. And watch the animal’s diet, food is their weakness, and obesity is a common disease.

By the way, there is one important feature when breeding Scottish Folds. It is strictly forbidden to cross two fold-eared Scots. This can lead to severe genetic mutations, such as rigid tail syndrome or serious problems with the spine and joints. What to do, you ask?

Some cat litters occasionally produce kittens with straight ears. They are called straights and they are used for mating animals. So if such a creature appears in your family, do not be upset - this is not a culling, but a very valuable shot that can bring the owner not only pleasure from communication, but also good money.

Buying a kitten with big eyes

To choose the right big-eyed kitten, you will need to meet with the breeder. This means that you should decide in advance on the breed of your future pet. If you know what kind of baby you need, then finding a nursery and contacting its staff will be easy. The problem may be the lack of kittens at the moment or the price being too high. To be prepared for this, it is advisable to study the breeder’s website in advance (even if the entire cattery consists of one cat).

The breeder's website should contain information about the breed being bred, the availability of kittens and their cost. In addition, here you can find photographs of graduates of this nursery. This way you can make sure that you get exactly the big-eyed cat you dream of.

It is recommended to purchase a purebred kitten only from a reliable breeder.

If you doubt that the breeder you have found can be trusted, find the nearest club of lovers of the desired breed or felinological organization. Such communities have all the useful information. Experts can tell you how to find a reliable breeder.

Criteria for choosing a big-eyed kitten

Once you decide on the breed and breeder, you will need to choose a kitten with big eyes. This is usually based on several criteria:

  • appearance of the animal;
  • health;
  • presence of pedigree;
  • kitten behavior;
  • age.

The kitten should look healthy. The eyes and ears should be clean, the fur should look well-groomed. If a big-eyed baby does not look neat enough, it means that the breeder is not taking good care of the animals or the cat is sick. The animal must not only be beautiful and well-groomed, but also healthy. There must be a veterinary passport, it indicates the vaccinations given and the operations performed.

Before choosing an animal, make sure it is healthy

A purebred kitten must have a pedigree. This is a document in which parents are indicated. The pedigree is the only document that confirms the breed. Without it, it will not be possible to participate in exhibitions and breeding programs. If in the future you want the same big-eyed kittens from your pet, then you simply cannot do without it.

Pay attention to the kitten's behavior. He should be active but friendly. It is not recommended to choose a baby that is too passive and quiet, but an aggressive cat is not the best option either. If he hisses, scratches or bites, he can grow into an angry bully. Those animals that have had enough of playing and running in childhood become balanced.

The smaller the kitten, the more gentle and sweeter it seems. Usually people try to choose just such ones; besides, it is believed that if you take home a very young baby, it will be easier to raise and adapt him. But I know of many cases when small kittens (the so-called last ones) turned out to be the weakest and most non-survivable in the litter. They often got sick and died early. And sometimes they lived a long time, but grew up withdrawn.

Suitable age of the pet

Experienced breeders interested in the well-being of their graduates try not to give away kittens before 12–14 weeks. Veterinarians fully support them in this. This is explained by the fact that at the age of three months the kitten receives its first vaccination. The health and life of the baby depends on this. Of course, the new owner can vaccinate the cat himself by taking the cat to the veterinarian, but in the joy of this, such a need can be forgotten, and the life of the animal is endangered. Before 3 months, the vaccine is not given, since during natural feeding the offspring receives antibodies from the cat's colostrum.

A small kitten should be given the opportunity to spend the first few months of its life with its mother and brothers/sisters. This is not only about the psychological connection between the baby and the cat, although this is also important. A kitten, communicating with its big-eyed brothers, will be able to learn how to communicate with other cats, hunting, hygiene, etc. Therefore, if a kitten is taken too early, it may grow up a little wild, unclean, or simply harmful.

It is not recommended to adopt a kitten until it has received its first vaccinations.

Some kittens may be afraid of humans even closer to six months; this may be due to the animal’s personality traits. To accustom a kitten to the company of a person, you can visit him even when he lives in the nursery next to his mother. In addition, by communicating with cats of a particular breed, you can learn more about their habits and character. If there are several kittens, and you have not yet decided, then when communicating with them it will be easier to identify the calmest or the noisiest. When I was choosing a kitten at the nursery, I had to go there several times. I had a lot of doubts, so I waited for the “cosmic signal”, but my intuition was silent, but my observations helped me decide.

To make sure that vaccinations have been completed, look at the animal's veterinary passport. Also, ask the breeder to provide you with information about flea and worm prevention. Many nursery employees themselves offer reminders with an approximate schedule of preventive procedures. You can ask for information about the peculiarities of feeding and maintenance. Of course, you can learn the general rules on your own, but the kitten may have already formed personal habits and preferences, and it is undesirable to change them suddenly (he may already experience stress from the move).

No. 3. Original Ukrainian Levkoy

Kyiv breeders, taking the Sphynx breed as a basis, bred this slender creature, full of grace. Today in Kyiv there is the largest nursery of strange, unusual animals. They are very similar to their ancestors, the same hairless and with drooping ears. The cat's muzzle is high-cheeked, the mustache is twisted into funny curls, and the ears give that very originality to the breed. Set high on the head, with soft cartilages and dangling tips in front, which is so reminiscent of gillyflowers. This similarity became the determining factor in the name of the bred species.

It is not clear what these strange pussies are sad about, but the look of their huge eyes is filled with sadness and silent reproach. Perhaps they are afraid of loneliness? Levkoys are very devoted to their owners, they become attached with all their hearts and are always affectionate.

As in the case of Scottish Folds, Ukrainian Levkoys sometimes produce straight-eared kittens in their litter, which are used for mating. The breed has great prospects for breeding and popularizing the species, since mutational changes as a result of selection that affected the ears did not in any way affect the overall health of the animal.

Lynx-like felines that can live with humans

Lynxes are not the only representatives of the family with long hairs on their ears and camouflage coat color. Among wild relatives, caracals and jungle cats have the greatest external resemblance to the famous predator. They also live in the wild, but can live with humans. However, for their maintenance it is necessary to create conditions close to the natural environment.

Caracal - steppe lynx

The caracal is called the steppe lynx. Wild caracals are found in Africa, Central Asia, the Middle East, and in some areas of Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Dagestan.


Caracal

Caracals have a slimmer build and weigh 11–12 kg. The tall, straight ears have distinct, long dark hairs. The steppe lynx's fur is dense, short, and has hard bristles on its paws. A distinctive feature of the caracal is its reddish coat without spots. In addition, the animal has a fairly long tail, growing up to 30 cm.


Baby caracals

Kittens born in the wild will not be able to become pets. Only animals born from individuals kept in captivity can live with humans. It is better to keep domesticated caracals on the territory of country houses, where they will have the opportunity to move freely over a large area.

When keeping a caracal at home, special attention should be paid to nutrition. A predator's diet must include raw meat, poultry, and eggs.

Some owners of these exotic pets feed them premium or super-premium dry ready-made food.

It is not recommended to have caracals in a house where there are small children.

A predator has very strong natural instincts, so if handled carelessly, it can quickly hit back at the offender.

Jungle cat - marsh lynx

People were able to tame the jungle cat 3 thousand years ago. The people of Egypt were the first to do this. They called it house, which meant "house", because the animals lived in people's houses. Another nickname for the animal is the swamp lynx. These animals do not like to go out into open areas. They live in reed thickets, among bushes growing on the banks of water bodies, and often hunt for fish and waterfowl. Animals visit human settlements only when there is a lack of food. They raid chicken coops.


jungle cat

Populations of these predators are mainly found in regions with warm climates. They live in Africa, Central Asia, the Caucasus, and also live in India, Palestine, and Thailand. In Russia, animals can be seen on the Volga coast and in Dagestan.

This predator is similar to a lynx in the color of its coat, but is smaller in size. The body length of the jungle cat is about 90 cm, the weight of the largest individuals reaches 12 kg, the height at the withers does not exceed 0.5 m. Small spots on the body are almost invisible in adult individuals, they are more pronounced in kittens.

The jungle cat becomes a pet only in exceptional cases. Developed natural instincts make it dangerous even for the owner who has lived nearby since childhood.

You can keep a swamp lynx in an area where it can freely hunt, swim and walk. The proximity of other pets to a wild cat is unacceptable.

No. 4. Devon Rex

A very popular breed at home in the UK and European countries. This amazing animal is sometimes compared to dogs; they are just as loyal and even trainable. For example, they follow the commands “Lie down”, “Sit”, “Stand”, can fetch objects, and are not averse to hunting at their leisure.

Rexiki is an ideal option for those who suffer from allergies. Their very short, but funny-curly hair does not fall out, it does not need to be brushed, but just needs to be wiped with a soft suede cloth. This “polishing” helps keep your hair in excellent condition from bath to bath. In addition, the Devon Rex coat is very pleasant to the touch, real soft velvet. The animal is super graceful, with a slender, muscular body and a triangular face with huge eyes and sensitive large ears.

Toyger

Short-haired cats, outwardly very similar to tigers in their color. The miniature tiger breed was created by crossing a domestic tabby cat and a Bengal cat.

Animals of this breed have clear vertical dark stripes throughout the body on a brown background. They have a long, wide head, deep-set eyes and small, rounded ears.

The body is long and muscular, with strong front legs and a very long striped tail. Representatives of the Toyger breed are large in size, their weight ranges from 3.5 to 7.5 kg. They have a friendly character: brindle cats get along well with their owners, children and other pets.

No. 5. Unique Ragdoll

A breed of American origin with a large body and an imposing disposition. Short-haired animals can have different eye colors on a large head: amber, blue, green. Soft and thick wool also varies in shades.

What makes the ragdoll unique is its ability to completely relax in the hands of a person. Translated, the name of the breed sounds like “rag doll.” The animal loves to play with children, and in general is very attached to humans.

Body constitution

  1. Weight is the most interesting thing: “snuppies” can be both large and very small in size and weight - from four to seven kilograms.
  2. The body is well balanced, the chest and back are wide, generally harmonious.
  3. The tail is thick and of medium length.
  4. The paws are short, straight and strong, rounded.
  5. The coat is thick, silky, elastic and at the same time soft. It envelops the figure of the animal with a dense halo, giving it that famous shape of a cute ball.
  6. The head is round, with clearly visible cheeks, a short and strong chin, small ears tilted forward.
  7. The neck is strong and short.
  8. Muzzle – the transition from forehead to nose should be clearly defined; long hair on the muzzle is unacceptable. The nose is short and wide. The facial expression should be sweet, but not “angry”.
  9. The eyes are large, round, widely spaced, and should be in line with the nose.

No. 6. Teddy Brit

A true Englishman, calm and self-possessed. A large British Shorthair cat with wonderful, round eyes the color of bright copper (less often blue or green).

Extra thick coat without hard guard hairs. It feels real plush to the touch, and it’s surprisingly pleasant to stroke this calm creature. And yes, she is the boss of the house. The self-sufficient and serious Briton does not like affection, and even a dog will not risk messing with him.

Big-eyed Internet celebrities

Hermann

His popularity is just beginning to gain momentum, because Herman is still very young. This unusual kitten lives in Copenhagen. He appeared in Shirley's family quite recently - the girl adopted the animal from a shelter and at the same time his appearance did not bother her at all.

When Herman was very young, he had certain health problems: he gained weight poorly and grew slowly. But now this is in the past - the pet is happy in his new home, he is full of energy and surrounded by care, and has become popular on Instagram, more details on this page: https://ololo.tv/bug-eyed-cat-German-conquers-insta/.

Snoopy

This is the cutest cat in the world. His face is captivating and makes you smile sincerely. Snoopy was born in May 2011. And he appeared on the Internet thanks to his owner Nin. One day she posted a photo of her pet on Weibo and within two months this cute kitten had tens of thousands of fans.


Snoopy the cat has the funniest appearance

After some time, Snoopy's popularity became incredibly huge, which forced his owner to create a blog, and then his personal page on Instagram and Facebook. Today this cat has several million fans around the world and their army continues to grow inexorably.

What are the main components of his success? Everything is very simple - in addition to natural charm, this cat has rather large brown eyes with which he looks at everyone with an innocent look.

Kobe

Kobe is a white cat with large blue eyes, which has become a rare, but at the same time very successful exception of its breed. British shorthaired chinchillas, which include Kobe, have a bluish-gray coat color and brown eye color. But this cat is a bright blue-eyed blonde.


Cobia has about 350 thousand followers on Instagram and approximately 6.5 thousand fans on Facebook. The owner of the beautiful Cobby Rebecca describes her as an extremely loyal pet who constantly follows her wet nurse, sleeps exclusively on her pillow and loves to play with water. Plus, as we all have seen, the fluffy blue-eyed blonde is incredibly photogenic and all her pictures turn out well.

On a note! Rebecca compares her favorite Kobe to the famous singer Frank Sinatra, who was nicknamed Mister Blue Eyes.

Matilda

This cat with big eyes is called an alien. And her eyes really are like an alien's. Today, Matilda has about 35 thousand followers on Instagram, which is slightly less than Gimo, but much more than most of us.

At birth, Matilda had normal eyes and was no different from other cats. Upon reaching the 12th week of her life, she found a new family, in which she lives to this day. Matilda grew up and after a while the owners noticed that her eyes began to change: the pupil stopped narrowing and a squint appeared. Upon examination by a specialist, it turned out that the cat had a congenital pathology called spontaneous lens luxation. Moreover, this disease affected both eyes.


This disease has practically deprived Matilda of her sight: the cat sees very poorly, distinguishing only movements and light. Matilda is constantly monitored by a veterinarian and receives proper treatment. However, despite long-term therapy, experts believe that the animal still needs surgery.

On a note! The cost of the operation is 2.5 thousand dollars! Despite the fact that this amount is quite large, it was possible to collect it for only 3 days, and all thanks to fans and caring subscribers!

Gimo

This cat has huge round eyes and a constantly dumbfounded look - no matter where he is and no matter what he does at the moment, this individual feature is always with him. Just one look at Gimo's photo is enough to remember him forever.

No. 7. Graceful Singapore

The rare breed, descended from Asian outdoor cats, comes in one of two colors: a soft brown with light markings, or a strong cream with darker markings. Externally, the cat looks like a lioness. Not in size, but in the graceful grace of a wild animal.

The charming attractiveness of the huge almond-shaped eyes of the Singapura is all the more valuable because it is quite rare in nature. The iris ranges from amber to transparent green.

Mechanism of vision

Sometimes we notice strange things about our pets: a cat that can easily catch a fly on the fly does not seem to see how a toy is being waved right in front of it. At the same time, everything is completely normal with the pet’s vision. What explains this selective blindness?

Near objects may become invisible to cats

To understand the details of image clarity, you need to turn to the lens, which is responsible for focusing light rays on the retina. The lens, depending on the circumstances, can straighten (then the cat sees distant objects more clearly) or acquire a convex shape (when the cat focuses on close-up details). Changing the state of the lens is called accommodation and involves adjusting vision to a particular object.

Distant objects are of little interest to a cat interested in prey nearby

Accommodation is available equally to both humans and cats, but in humans it is much better developed. The fact is that the muscle responsible for changing the shape of the eye lenses - the ciliary muscle - is less developed in felines. This is expressed in the fact that people with good eyesight are able to distinguish objects at a distance of up to 60 meters, while a cat’s capabilities end at six meters. The rest of the space merges into a grayish, blurry background. Since cats are not strategists, but tacticians, they use the technique of a surprise attack from cover, they do not need farsightedness for long-term tracking.

The ciliary muscle is responsible for quickly adjusting the eye to the object in question.

The underdevelopment of the ciliary muscle does not allow cats to focus their gaze on objects located right under their nose. At such moments, felines exhibit unexpected farsightedness, which greatly surprises their owners, although there is nothing surprising in this. To see an object, the cat needs to move a certain distance away from it. She sees everything that is closer than fifty centimeters to the cat very blurry, if she sees it at all.

Cats don’t always see what they interact with; their keen sense of smell helps them identify objects.

This feature could be noticed by owners who introduced the cat to some new toy, bringing it directly to the animal’s face. In order to somehow get to know the object, the pet used its sense of smell, not being able to examine the toy at such a close distance.

The effectiveness of jumping on prey saved the cat from tedious tracking

This feature is difficult to attribute to advantages or disadvantages. The difference in the perception of objects and color shades in humans and cats is associated with the conditions in which both visions are used. While color and small details are important to humans, cats are interested in quick reactions to moving “targets.”

No. 8. Abyssinian cat

Wild African cats, the ancestors of modern Abyssinians, endowed the animal with grace and sandy color. During selection, the color scheme varied with such shades as lilac, chocolate, silver and blue.

The transparency of the green eyes is full of charm, and the movements of the slender body are aristocratic. The Abyssinian cat needs vaccinations. The fragile health of the delicate animal often falls victim to leukemia.

Japanese Bobtail

The Japanese cat breed has an interesting feature - a small short tail, which makes the appearance funny and cute. But all the features of appearance and character are fully combined with each other.

Seals have a slender and small body, which is supported by low, thin legs. The muzzle is triangular, and on the top of its head there are neat pointed ears. The cat’s appearance is complemented by large eyes, which can have a variety of colors - blue, green, tea-colored, orange.

Their fur is very soft and medium length. The color of the cover can be different - there can be monochromatic animals (white, gray, smoky) or two colors, for example, white and black, variegated, sand with dark splashes.

Features of behavior:

these are playful and friendly cats, but at the same time they are quite rebellious; they are very clean, constantly cleaning their fur, for this reason they do not need careful grooming every day; are quite difficult to learn, each command must be presented in the form of a game; endowed with a pleasant melodic voice, but never bothered by noise; Everyone must pay attention to an interesting feature in the character of Japanese Bobtail cats. They know how to show the owner's greeting - the cat can raise its front paw, from the outside it looks as if it is saying hello.

No. 9. Turkish Angora

Among other cats with big eyes, we can highlight the Turkish snow-white angora - the owner of the softest airy coat. Other breeds also have representatives with white fur, such as Persians.

The color of the huge eyes of white animals can vary; there are even cats with different eyes. But the blue-eyed ones were out of luck. They are born deaf, regardless of breed or gender.

Features of care

Cat with big ears: examples of breeds

For every owner of a big-eyed miracle, it is necessary to become familiar with the structure of the cat’s organ of vision. There is a small amount of fluid between the eyeball and the mucous membrane. It is necessary for comfortable sliding of the eyelid. This fluid is constantly renewed, the old one comes out in the form of mucus along with the dirt that has fallen on the membrane of the eye. The inner corners of the cat's eyes are directed downward, and they are continued by an almost imperceptible path. Excess liquid comes out along this path. In the morning, discharge may accumulate in the corners of the eyes and turn into a crust.


Cat eye care

In most cases, the animal can remove accumulated dirt by itself when washing, but the owner must still ensure that the eyes are clean. Some representatives of cats, for example, Persians, due to the special structure of the nasal septum, cannot cope on their own. In this case, discharge from the eyes may be profuse. This is considered normal in these breeds. To avoid any problems with your pet's eyes, you should conduct a daily morning examination of the animal.

Note! If necessary, you need to remove dirt and discharge not only from the corners of the eyes, but also from the fur.

You can wipe it with a cotton pad soaked in distilled water or a special lotion or gel, which can be purchased at a pet store. You can use a cotton pad soaked in strong tea leaves.


Diversity of representatives of the cat world

There are now quite a few breeds of cats with big eyes. You can spend a long time choosing a new friend among unusual, exotic and rare animals. But it is worth paying attention to ordinary mongrel cats, which can also be amazingly beautiful and have a charming look. Love for the animal should still come first.

No. 10. Snoopy the cat

The Japanese are also trying to breed their own big-eyed breed of cats, which they are very partial to. For this they use exotics, Persians, and Japanese bobtails, but so far not very successfully. Although bobtails are excellent breeding material. They are loyal to their owner, sociable and attractive. The beautiful body ends with a cute pompom instead of a tail, and the eyes are large, transparent and with a very proud look.

The most famous of them is Snoopy the cat (Internet star)!

Sound amplifiers

A cat with tufted ears has highly developed hearing. He hears a call at a distance of 0.3 - 0.35 km. Not all sounds are pleasant to them. Some of them bring discomfort.

What does the cat with tassels hear? What sounds irritate him? The cat can even hear the rustle of a mouse's paws. It picks up sound lower and higher than the human ear. Mice produce sound at a frequency of 40 kHz. A person recognizes sound ranges up to 20 kHz, and a breed of cats with tufted ears can recognize over 65 kHz.

Cat with tassels on ears

Important! A cat with ears like a lynx turns one and the other ear 180 degrees in different directions - this is how it looks for sources inaudible to humans. The best way to monitor your pet is a GPS collar with tracker PT 100

The best tool is the age table:

  • 3-5 weeks: appearance of 1 baby teeth;
  • 6 months: baby tooth is replaced by molar;
  • 12 months: Teeth become mature. There are no stones or yellow plaque on them;
  • 18 months: The tooth shows 1 noticeable wear. Erasure of the central lower incisor is visible;
  • 24 months: a yellow tint appears in the tooth enamel, pronounced tartar appears;
  • 4-5 years: the central incisors are worn away, the same damage to the middle incisors is visible;
  • 5-6 years: abrasion of the fangs, wear of the outer upper incisor is visible, pigmentation of the tooth enamel;
  • 7 years: worn out incisors (1-2 missing, fallen out), pronounced wear of fangs;
  • 10 years: the cat loses teeth: central incisors, then middle and extreme incisors;
  • 15 years: the pet loses its fangs – a means of self-defense.
