My cat Gus 2005. I remember about 2 years ago a red headed boy rode up on a bike asking if anyone wanted a kitten. Then he pulled a small white powder puff from his pocket. I took it home. Now he is so big ... it's hard to imagine him ever fitting into someones pocket.
He has been fixed and he never leaves his yard.

Hi Ambi,
Your Gus is such a beautiful kitty. Thank you for sharing him with us.
Take care,

He's beautiful! It's hard to believe how fast they grow up and how big they can get. I hope you have many, many happy years with him.
Gus is just plain beautiful. Wow - look at the paws on him!
Ambi, he is a twin to my Coby! Pretty babies! I found Coby when he was around 2 months old ... now he looks just like Gus!
Thank you for sharing, what a great picture you took!

Your cat has yellow eyes,if they were blue he would be deaf.Most all pure white cats with blue eyes are deaf.
Is that mint he's laying in? My cats LOVE to lay in the mint patch. Gus is beautiful.

Hi Jan,
My cat Lily has very blue eyes, is pure white and is definitely not deaf. I have heard the same thing about blue eyed white cats and my vet was surprised that she could hear. She is a shorthair which might make a difference.
Your Gus looks exactly like my Camilla. She is 12 yrs. old and my love and joy. She is so pretty, fluffy. and soft.
Our Snowball looks just like Gus except for Blue eyes & he certainly doesn't behave like he's deaf , he loves to talk & has a Beautiful Mewsical Voice . He's big too & is Long Haired .I wonder if anyone knows what the Purrcentages are of deaf as against Non Deaf Pure white Cats. Maybe it has to with whether their Parents were pure white too .
I wish you many happy years with Gus ,he looks sweet . & I thank you for saving him . I'd have popped him in my shirt & brought him home too.
My cat Snowball has bright blue eyes and he is pure white. He is not deaf. He loves to lay in the garden too. Gayle
Wow, Gus seems to be living the good life. He looks like a lover! So big and fluffy!!!
I had a pure white cat with blue eyes and he was deaf.I also read that white blue eyed cats were deaf.I guess there are exceptions to every rule.If we wanted to get his attention we had to stomp on the the ground and he felt the vibrations.This cat was different,instead of going back to his old home when we moved,he followed us to our new home about 5 miles a way .To this day we don't know how he did it.
Gus is beautiful. I had a pure white cat named Rocky. Rocky was a true albino with one blue eye and one green eye. He was not deaf. But we had a stray take up with us during a thunderstorm one day.
