There is a rare breed from Thailand called the Khao Manee which has odd-eyes, and they have just been imported into the UK. You'll love the pics...
The Khao Manee Cat Club

Do have a look at this page:
The Khao Manee Cat Club - Deafness in White Cats Genetic Research
DNA swabs (easily done) are needed for a research project into deafness in white cats - from both deaf and hearing ones, of all breeds & moggies. Would be nice for your new kitty to help!
I would be happy for him to participate! It would be exciting. I would love to know what breed he is, if any. His Mum was at the rescue she was brown striped.
