Question

*strabismus

Answer 1

I think it's only Siamese breeds.  My Red Lynx Point is cross eyed...and I had a regular Lynx Point that was SO cross eyed that we named her "Ce" for Cross Eyed. =P

Answer 2

Neither of my blue-eyed cats are cross-eyed,nor are all Siamese.

Answer 3

oh now i understand, and no my blue eyed birman is not cross eyed

Answer 4

It usually is just siamese cats. It is very common and they are prone to it. In fact, most siameses are. I have 3 siameses; a lynx-point, a seal-point, and a flame-point. All but the flame-point are cross-eyed because he is a mix. But the other two are extremely cross-eyed (they are sisters). So, to answer your question, siameses are usually the cross-eyed ones. Blue-eyed or light-eyed usually doesn't matter. If a blue or light-eyed cat is cross-eyed, it is just a coincidence.

I hope this helps to answer your question. Have a great day!!!! :-D

Answer 5

It was once a common thing with the breed, as they were bred to be that way.  Now it is not considered attractive but does happen occasionally from overbreeding or a throw back from the past.

I think it's a terrible thing to breed into them.

I WAS a breeder of Siamese.  Chocolate point, but mine were large, muscled cats and very domineering.  I actually had one attack a German Shepard - thought it was going to attack us so went on the attack instead.  Not a pretty sight. I do not breed anymore and find the heinz 57 cats much more family oriented and better pets.  Plus save a life, give a life.
