A video of a cat with exceptionally striking eyes has actually gone viral on TikTok.
The clip was published 2 days earlier from the TikTok account Fiona The Cat (@fionathechonk) and had 6.6 million views at the time of composing.
The video reveals different close-up shots of a cat with piercing emerald green eyes looking at the cam.
A caption shown the post checks out: “She’s really the most photogenic cat on the planet.”
Cat eye color differs depending upon the breed, varying from blue, green and yellow to orange and brown, according to an August 2015 PetMD short article.
Dr. Gaylord Brown, the vet at D.E.L.T.A. Rescue, an animal sanctuary based in California, said in the short article: “All kittens are born with blue eyes and at about 6 weeks of age they begin to establish their adult color” and “feral cats usually have actually hazel colored eyes.”
Some cats might even have one blue eye, while their other eye is another color, which is a benign condition called heterochromia, the short article said.
So what provides cat eyes that distinct radiance in the evening?
Dr. DJ Haeussler, a board-certified veterinary eye doctor at The Animal Eye Institute in Ohio, explained in the PetMD short article that feline eyes radiance “when light is shined at them due to a reflective structure that becomes part of their retina called the tapetum lucidum.”
Most animals that are active in the evening have this unique, extra layer (the tapetum) below the retina, a short article by VCA, among North America’s biggest animal health center chains, notes. “This reflective structure imitates a mirror, and shows light back through your animal’s retina to boost night vision,” the short article explained.
The eyes of cats radiance in a different way depending upon the breed. Most feline eyes radiance brilliant green, while a Siamese cat’s eyes radiance more yellow. “This variation originates from the quantity of zinc or riboflavin present in the pigment cells present within the tapetum lucidum,” according to the PetMD short article.
Several TikTok users swooned over the cat in the viral post and her vibrant eyes.
