Emerald iris color is rare
Initially, the most common eye color for cats with any coat was green. But subsequently, breeders became somewhat carried away by breeding new breeds with unusual eye colors: blue, bright orange, etc. Therefore, today, unfortunately, cats with green irises have become a relatively rare occurrence.
There are quite a lot of furry animals with tea-colored, marsh or, for example, khaki-colored eyes. But cats with emerald green or bright grass irises are very difficult to see today.
But still, if you try, you can find a cat with such eyes even today. Even an outdoor cat can have a bright emerald iris. Of course, this eye color is allowed by the standards of many breeds.
Black wool: features
This fur color initially is also not uncommon for cats. The coat of a purebred cat may appear black if its color is defined as:
- jet black;
- dark chocolate;
- silver-black;
- black and blue, etc.
Fur of this color, as well as emerald eyes, are acceptable by the standards of many modern breeds. Of course, you can also have an outdoor kitten at home with this combination of fur and eye color. But you can, of course, only find such a pet with a certain amount of luck. Genes in street cats manifest themselves extremely unpredictably. Therefore, for those pet lovers who want to have a black cat with green eyes, it is better to visit the websites of nurseries that specialize in breeding those breeds whose standards allow such a combination.
Black cat in the house
There are many signs about a black cat in the house, telling about what a cat of this color can present to its owners:
After ten years, her search was successful and she represented Bombay in exhibitions. Bombays turn out to be ideal housemates. They have a balanced temperament and show great sensitivity when working with conspecifics and people. Cats are considered fearless, active, and eager to learn. They express their affection with persistent caressing.
Animals need a lot of attention and care from their owners. Families with children are ideal as cats do not want to be left alone. Bombay can be kept as a clean apartment. But she is also learning to stay on a leash. The cats develop an attachment to their caregiver, who earns them the nickname "dog cat." Bombays are strong and resilient animals. Regular care gives the coat its shine.
- They say that this animal can protect the house from thieves and dark forces.
- In ancient times, it was believed that a pet with a very dark coat color contributed to a good harvest.
- When newlyweds cross the threshold of their new home, they need to let a black cat in front of them. It is believed that in this way you can appease the spirits living in the house and ensure a long and happy life in it. If this is not done, then, according to legend, the eldest member of the family will soon die.
- Opinions differ about what will happen if someone else's dark cat runs into the apartment. According to some beliefs, the cat is its own master and will never come just like that - it specifically comes to the house where it has decided to bring happiness. According to others, an unfamiliar black cat that has strayed is a harbinger of troubles and illnesses.
- If a cat like this lives at home, love in the family will flourish forever.
You can believe in all these signs or not - everyone’s personal choice. Only one thing is absolutely clear - if a wonderful animal the color of night has settled in your house, and you dote on it, then you won’t find a better pet in the whole world.
Life expectancy: up to 18 years. There are many mythical stories about our beloved velvet paw. In part, they still hold each other. There has always been something mysterious about the cat. Mysterious bright green eyes, their graceful body that can steal silently, and they can fall from a great height, but nothing happens to them. All this made her so interesting in the past, but also scary, and many legends have been attributed to her over time.
Schwarzer Kater: What happened to the terrible black cat? He is a bad witch in every fairy tale, a constant companion, and also used a black cat in spells “Abracadabra three times black cat.” And it must be bad if a black cat crossed his path. If someone is sick, a black cat crosses the path, it was once said that illness is going badly. If someone has done this, it should help to spit it out three times to prevent an impending disaster. It was also said to throw three stones over the cat's path or to spit on a stone and throw it over the place where the cat was running.
The cat is one of the most difficult symbols that one has to deal with when deciphering dreams.
The thing is that the image of a cat can appear in a dream for many reasons, and it is almost never possible to determine exactly how our subconscious worked at the moment when we saw a small kitten, a Siamese cat or an affectionate cat.
Perhaps in reality we encountered an amazing person who, despite all the difficulties, managed to avoid a seemingly imminent danger. After all, looking at precisely such people, we remember the folk wisdom: “He falls on his feet like a cat.”
The appearance of a cat in a dream can also be facilitated by meeting an independent, independent and slightly frivolous woman. And this is no coincidence, because in real life we call such a woman “a cat that walks on its own.”
Or perhaps the image of a cat in a dream arose as a result of the fact that memories of how the cat washed itself were deposited in our subconscious: the folk sign “The cat washes its face for guests” is no secret to anyone.
A cat can appear in a dream even when we are watching with pleasure how a young guy caresses and plays with a cat: after all, it’s rare that another folk wisdom does not come to mind at this moment: “He who loves cats will love his wife.”
What if we dreamed of a cat, as a warning of impending danger (after all, during the day we were very worried when a black cat crossed our path)?
As for those human qualities that characterize a cat, they are, without a doubt, known to everyone. This is cunning, deceit and malice.
But at the same time, we must not forget that in ancient times cats were deified and considered special animals. This means that any dream in which you saw a cat is prophetic. The most important thing is to be able to decipher it correctly.
Watching a cat wash itself in a dream means guests. It is possible that you will meet old good friends with whom you will have a great time.
Watching a dog hunt a cat in a dream is a warning that you should under no circumstances deceive your friends. Having learned about your deception, your friends will turn away from you forever.
Seeing in a dream a small kitten hiding in a tree from an angry dog is a sign that in real life you should be very careful.
If you dreamed of a kitten who, having noticed a dog in the distance, immediately runs to hide on the roof, then you should beware of a danger that you have already managed to avoid once.
If in a dream you saw a cat hunting for mice, then in the near future your life will be hectic and not entirely joyful. Various problems will arise on your way due to the deceit and evil machinations of your secret enemy.
If a cat scratched you in a dream, then in reality big problems await you, about which you will be very worried.
If you dreamed that a cat drove its claws right into your chest, then emotional anguish, sadness and sorrow await you.
Watching a cat pretending to be dead and lying next to a mouse hole means that in the near future someone close to you will attempt to deceive you.
Watching in a dream how a cat caught a mouse and carried it off to show its prey to other cats is a sign that in real life you are a very vain person.
Perhaps such a dream indicates that there are vain people around you who will bring you great misfortune.
If in a dream a black cat crossed your path, then in reality you should beware of dangers. Such a dream also suggests that you overestimate your strength, and therefore you should not refuse the help of friends.
Seeing a cat with kittens in a dream means problems with children. Perhaps your child is deceiving you.
Petting a cat sitting on your lap in a dream is a sign that in your environment there is a not entirely decent, frivolous woman who will greatly let you down by taking advantage of your trust.
Watching a young guy or a single man stroking a cat in a dream means that when he gets married, he will love his wife very much.
Feeding a cat in a dream is a sign that it’s time to stop “soaring in the clouds” and mind your own business.
Watching several cats fighting in a dream is evidence that a streak of minor setbacks awaits you, so be patient and courageous.
If in a dream an unfamiliar cat caresses you, it means that one of your new acquaintances has decided to take advantage of your kindness and trust. Be careful.
Seeing a dead cat in a dream is a bad omen. Apparently, you will learn about the illness of someone close to you.

Maine Coons
These cats have come into fashion in Russia relatively recently. At the moment, Maine Coons are extremely popular in our country. The main features of this breed are its truly gigantic size (weight up to 13 kg), the presence of a large “hooligan” box (the place where the mustache grows) and fluffy, rather long fur.
Cats are really big and often even look scary. However, the temperament of representatives of this breed is actually very soft and flexible. Despite their somewhat “street” appearance, the animals are exclusively indoor animals. Maine Coons have retained their hunting instinct. That is, they can catch mice and birds, for example, with the same zeal as other cats.
However, Maine Coons, unfortunately, cannot stand up for themselves on the street at all. Representatives of this breed have great love for all living creatures, including neighbor cats or even dogs. Such an animal can approach a pack of wild dogs completely without fear, which, of course, will end badly for him.
Blue-black wool for Maine Coons is considered one of the standards. Often such cats also have emerald irises. A photo of a black Maine Coon cat with green eyes can be seen below.
Bombay cat
Are you interested in knowing which of all the black cats is the blackest? The Bombay cat proudly bears this title. The breed is called this way because of its resemblance to the black panther living in the Indian state of Bombay.
This breed is characterized by an elongated, muscular body and proportional shape. The coat is shiny and smooth; among the black color it is impossible to find any other shades.
They love to play, but unlike their prototype, the panther, they are very cowardly. You should not let your animal outside without a leash; most likely the cat will have to be removed from the tree.
The kitten of the blackest cat in the world can be bought for $300.
Orientals
This is another breed that is definitely worth considering for those who want to have a black, green-eyed pet. A feature of Orientals is, first of all, a very unusual “lynx” appearance. Their muzzle and ears form an inverted triangle. These cats have shiny fur and look very elegant and graceful.
One of the characteristic colors for this breed is ebonite, that is, coal-black. Orientals with such fur usually do not have a single light spot on their body. Even the nose and paw pads of these cats are black.
The character of Orientals is quite flexible. These cats adore their owners and constantly demand attention from them. One of the characteristics of this breed is its loud voice, which Orientals love to use with or without reason.
Green eyes in Orientals, including blacks, are quite common. Moreover, the iris of such cats can have a variety of shades - from swamp to bright grassy. The eyes of animals of this breed are large, almond-shaped. That’s why orientals with a green iris look incredibly impressive. A photo of a black cat of this breed is presented below.

Turkish Angora
One of the most ancient natural breeds. It was also brought to England from Turkey in the sixteenth century. It has long been considered a species of Persian. Numerous crossings with these long-haired cats significantly reduced the purity of the breed.
The natural gene pool after the Second World War was restored in the fifties of the last century; the ancestors of the new Turkish Angora were a pair of cats preserved in the Ankara Zoo. The breed was recognized only in 1973 in England, only snow individuals with blue or heterochromic eyes.
The Angora differs from the Persian cat in its more graceful and elongated body, grace and flexibility. Other colors - red, brown, blue and cream, black, tortie, tabby with green, amber or brown eyes - were approved later.
The Angora's character is also phlegmatic, but they are more friendly and affectionate animals. There is no Persian willfulness in them. Perfect for living in a large family with children.
The average cost of these animals in the world is from three hundred to eight hundred dollars, depending on the class of the animal.

Balinese cat (Balinese)
Sometimes this animal is called the Siamese longhaired cat because of its characteristic color-point color of various colors - blue, cream, lilac, red, chocolate, tortie and tabby. In some systems, the long-haired variant of colors other than the standard Siamese is called Javanese. The breed was officially recognized in 1961, and is now recognized in almost all felinological systems.

Burmese cat (Sacred Burma)
One of the oldest cat breeds. Buddhist monks considered them the guardians of the souls of the dead. There is a beautiful legend about the appearance of these cats. It is connected with the death of the guardian priest from the Lao Tsung Temple. The beloved cat of the deceased Singh touched the body of the owner and was transformed - his fur became golden, on his face, paws and tail - black, the very tips of his paws were shod with white “socks”, and his eyes acquired the color of heavenly blue. The monks dealt with the attackers, believing that the Buddha himself was their patron.
Later, in 1919, a pair of animals were given as a gift by the monks to French officers. This is how this sacred breed ended up in Europe. Registered in France in 1925.
Nowadays there are several different colors - red, blue, cream, chocolate, lilac, siale, but always color point.
Playful and affectionate, somewhat obsessive and jealous, Burms do well in a large, friendly family with children.

Siberian cat
The Siberian cat is a Russian longhaired breed. Known to people since the sixteenth century under the name Bukhara.
There are many theories about the appearance of this natural variety. Most likely, this is one of the types of eastern cats that came to Siberia along with settlers or was brought by merchants, and mutated under the influence of harsh climatic conditions. During the Great Patriotic War they actively helped people fight rodents. It was these cats that were brought to Leningrad after the blockade was lifted to kill rats.
The breed began to be selectively bred in 1986. The standard allows any color of long and thick coat with excellent undercoat, except chocolate, lilac, Abyssinian ticked. A distinctive feature of these animals is the letter “M” on the forehead.
The smartest and kindest pet is unusually beautiful and often has small tassels on its ears. Unpretentious in food, care consists of weekly combing of the long, thick coat, which does not have a tendency to form tangles. They are ubiquitous and loved by humans.
The cost of the Siberian in Russia is small, but abroad this animal is valued dearly, from five hundred to a thousand dollars.

Norwegian Forest Cat
Another of the oldest natural breeds, the Norwegian Forest Cat has long been present in the myths and tales of Northern Europe. They were considered companions of the Viking gods Thor and Freya. The first scientific description belongs to the naturalist Frins and dates back to 1599. They always lived on farms and were considered simple yard cats. First presented at an exhibition in Oslo in 1938.
During the Second World War, the breed almost completely died. It was restored with difficulty by 1970. Through the works of the Norwegian felinologist Nordan, a society for the preservation of the Norwegian Forest Cat was created.
The Norwegian Forest Cat is not very different in appearance from the Siberian cat. Officially declared an animal of Norway in 1977. The oldest breed of pets with cute tufts on their ears has long and reliably won the hearts of people with their calm, Nordic character, friendliness and excellent qualities as a hunter.

Maine Coon (Raccoon cat)
The Maine Coon is an American breed of long-haired cat, known to mankind since 1891. This animal is the result of natural hybridization. It is not known for certain who its ancestors are; perhaps there was a lynx in its distant ancestors. There is even a version that the coon is the result of crossing a European shorthair cat and a raccoon, but this explanation is completely unscientific.
The result of a natural gene mutation, although it has an unusual external, outstanding appearance and significant size, can hardly be considered successful. This pet is often born with congenital pathologies of the heart, kidneys, lower jaw and teeth, which is associated with the physiological characteristics of the body structure.
Too massive jaws also cause problems with the spine. It has long, thick hair that requires careful and constant care. There are a variety of colors. It has ears with remarkable long tufts and a massive, protruding lower jaw.
He certainly won the love of cat lovers with his exotic appearance. It should be remembered that its maintenance is associated with daily careful care.
You can buy a Maine Coon kitten in Russia from twenty to one hundred thousand rubles, depending on the class of the pet.
Neva masquerade cat
The Neva Masquerade is the result of crossing the Siberian and Siamese cats. The Russian breed appeared in the sixties of the twentieth century in Leningrad.
Despite the fact that many felinological organizations are in no hurry to recognize the young breed, it is very popular. First of all, because of the characteristic color-point color, large blue eyes and long shiny fur, which is considered hypoallergenic. This is unlikely to be the case, but cases where allergy sufferers get along well with this pet are indeed not rare.
This very friendly, intelligent, calm and very attached creature is perfect for families with children.
The cost of a kitten is slightly higher than a standard Siberian - up to one and a half thousand dollars a show animal is sold.

Somalia
This breed was developed in the United States of America in the late fifties of the twentieth century from the Abyssinians. According to felinologists, Persians and other long-haired cats did not take part in selection. However, the Somali is a long-haired variant of the Abyssinian cat.
First presented at the exhibition in 1963, the breed standard was approved in 1967.
This is a graceful, very large animal with long, thick hair, large almond-shaped eyes and ears with tassels at the tips. All colors are ticked and varied - sorel, blue, lilac, fawn, cinnamon, ruddy, cream, wild.
The Somali has a friendly and open character, intelligent and playful. They need long walks and large spaces for an active lifestyle. Perfect for a family with children living in a country house.

Turkish Van
This cat also comes from Turkey and has a natural origin. The breed got its name from a lake in Anatolia, where it arose and developed for a long time without interbreeding with other species.
In 1955, several individuals came to the UK and felinologists began purposefully working on selection and approval of the breed, which occurred in 1969.
These animals are now registered in almost all felinological systems and are very popular all over the world. They are similar in type to Angora, but have a stronger build. There are colors - golden, white, blue, cream, tortoiseshell. The eyes are blue in animals with a primary white color, heterochromia (multi-colored) is possible, yellow in all others.
The most common color is solid white with red spots on the face; there are marbled ones. A distinctive feature is a snow mark on the forehead and white ears on the outside.
Turkish Vans are excellent fishermen and swimmers, and their coat has excellent water-repellent properties. They do not tolerate loneliness well. Recommended for large families in which one of the household members is always in the house. The cost of a kitten varies from four hundred to a thousand dollars depending on the class (pet, breed, show).
Nibelung
This charming "Child of the Mists" looks quite similar to the long-haired Russian Blue, but is an independent breed, bred and registered in the United States of America in 1987. They are distinguished by their semi-long coat of amazing color - the only one allowed - deep blue with light tipping at the ends of the hair. Because of this, the animal appears to be surrounded by a silvery haze. There can also be only one eye color - emerald. Various shades of it are allowed, but if yellowness predominates, this is a disqualifying sign.
These delicate and gentle animals are very silent, they practically do not speak, and can “meow” silently. They treat one single owner with love, trepidation, care and jealousy, but throughout their lives they take care of everyone in the house. They really don’t like quarrels, loud screams and noise.
They are not at all demanding in terms of maintenance and feeding; you just need to make sure that their amazing fur does not fade in the sun.
This young breed, although initially not appreciated by experts, is gaining popularity every year. Felinologists predict a great future for this graceful cat with an amazing temperament.
In Russia you can hardly find a real Nibelung. It makes sense to buy an exhibition animal or a breed-class cat for breeding from nurseries in the United States of America, Canada, and Europe. Its cost will be high - not less than ten thousand dollars. Pets are practically not sold as a pet class. The price in Russia for this animal starts from a thousand dollars.
Himalayan cat
It is the result of crossing a Persian and a Siamese. The breed was developed in the United States of America in 1947. Today it is recognized by all feline systems.

Cymric cat (Cymric, Welsh cat)
Cymrik is a relatively recently developed breed. It was originally formed as a result of natural mutations in a Welsh county. Officially registered in Canada in 1970, in the United States in 1989. It is often called the Longhaired Manx.
This medium-sized animal seems much larger due to its semi-long double coat - the undercoat is very thick, such a coat is sometimes called “stuffed”. The main difference from other breeds is the absence of a tail; only a few caudal vertebrae are allowed.
The colors are varied - solid, smoky, tabby, color point, bicolor.
Loyal, affectionate, friendly and very hardy pets are touchy. If there are children in the family, they should play delicately with the cat and not offend it..
For Russia, Kymrik is a great rarity. The price of a kitten in nurseries around the world is from four hundred to one and a half thousand dollars.
Japanese Longhaired Bobtail
This is the oldest natural breed of Japanese cat with a short, curved tail.
Japanese Longhaired Bobtail
There is a beautiful legend about the origin of this breed. The ancient Japanese believed that all the evil in the world was contained in the tail of the cat deity Necromancer. Cats were persecuted for a long time, and when their help was needed in exterminating rodents, people began to take them into their homes, having previously docked their tails. As a result of centuries-old mutations, tailless individuals began to be born.
Japanese Bobtail
The breed was recognized in the United States of America in 1978. There are two versions - with short and long hair. These sweet pets have a wonderful, friendly and trusting nature and are highly prized.

Ragdoll
This wonderful fluffy pet with the funny name “Rag Doll” was bred and registered in the United States of America in 1965. Breeder Annie Baker crossed an Angora and a Burmese cat and got kittens with unusual colors and a calm, even phlegmatic character.
The breed got its name from the ability of cats to completely relax their muscles when a person picks them up.

In Russia, a pet “for the soul” can be purchased at a price of ten to sixty thousand rubles; purebred animals from American nurseries are much more expensive.
Ragamuffin
The Ragamuffin breed was bred by the same American breeder as the Ragdoll. And it was obtained by crossing the latter with ordinary street long-haired cats. That's why it's called "Ragged Man". This is a large breed (up to ten kilograms in weight for males) and comes in various colors except color point.
Not long ago, Ragamuffin was recognized by the felinological federations CFA, ACFA and WCF. Until mid-2030, mating with all long-haired breeds is allowed.
Due to the peculiarities of its temperament, this animal evokes admiration; it is not for nothing that its first name is “Cherub”. Very attached to a person, absolutely trusting and not touchy.
It is not widely popular due to its low distribution. You can buy "Raggedy" only in a few nurseries in the United States of America, Canada, Great Britain, and Japan. Kittens cost up to eight hundred dollars.
