Rare Blue-Eyed Maine Coon Looks Like an Ocean Princess

Everyone loves a cat with a rare coat color. Whether you're looking at a Blue Tortie Maine Coon or a kitten whose face makes a perfect flame, those will always be the cats most people gravitate toward. However, there's one thing that always gets me: eyes. Cat eyes are amazing.

Just look at this Maine Coon! Blue eyes on a Maine Coon are very rare, and her eyes aren't just blue. They look like the kind of color you'd only find in an ocean princess's favorite necklace, or on her ball gown. This kitten is simply stunning:

The Wilder Regenbogen Cattery is home to some of the most stunning cats I've ever seen in my life. The cattery is in Switzerland, and they specialize in European Maine Coons, which is part of why they're so breathtaking. European Maine Coons are slight:

• Fluffier.
• Larger.
• More angular, especially in their faces.

This Maine Coon kitten is grey and white, with a little bit of orange around her face. It almost looks like a little beard! She's going to grow up to be the most beautiful cat ever.

Though Maine Coons having blue eyes is pretty rare, especially in cats who aren't fully right, Wilder Regenbogen seems to have quite a few of them, and in all different colors! They even have one who's orange!

I just know this cat is giving the cattery a run for their money. She just looks so adventurous and silly, which is exactly what makes Maine Coons so precious. If I ever get a cat, I need one of these!

How Rare Are Blue Eyes in Maine Coons?

Blue eyes are pretty much the standard for some breeds, like the Ragdoll cat. A lot of people believe that purebred Ragdolls can only have blue eyes! However, when it comes to Maine Coon, you almost never see blue eyes, unless they're fully white!

All Maine Coon kittens are born with blue-grey eyes, but they quickly turn to other colors as they age. Though there isn't an exact percentage of how often they occur, blue eyes are not considered "breed standard" by TICA, and they're almost always only found in fully white or mostly white Maine Coons.

While a Maine Coon having blue eyes and a fully pigmented coat does not mean they're unhealthy at all, it does mean you need to be careful. If you're purchasing from a breeder, make sure you get their paperwork to prove they're not a mix!
