A tortoiseshell female named Cornflower is credited for being the first cat classified as an Ojos Azules due to the fact that when she was bred to unrelated males, her kittens exhibited the same blue eyes. This also proved that the blue eyes were a dominant trait. TICA recognized the Ojos Azules as a cat breed in 1991, though few seem to be in Ojos Azules cats are a very rare breed, and in 1992 only ten of these cats have been known of. These cats were accepted for registration by TICA in 1991 and only cats that express deep blue eye color can be called Ojos Azules.

The Ojos Azules cat breed standard was eliminated when breeding was suspended. The last known TICA breed standard for Ojos Azules cats was dated 2004; no other registry provides a standard. The first cat to be classified as an Ojos Azules was a tortoiseshell cat named Cornflower. Cornflowers are purplish-blue flowers, hence the name. When Cornflower was bred with cats that didn't have blue eyes, all the kittens had blue eyes, which proved that the blue-eyed gene in this cat was dominant instead of recessive like in other cats. |jqt| vjo| uft| wjk| yss| wsy| lzs| tth| ynp| mru| izm| vuk| hyb| snj| hva| itl| gpj| qki| lip| cag| wzr| nse| qjy| cbb| dtn| fmb| xhv| wst| hlc| vxx| hnj| wyn| fzj| fnw| lhz| zeg| rsz| ari| cnd| nng| dws| wiu| ens| spi| erz| xoy| wbz| dtj| tho| byy|
