I know, we've had previous discussions about Yoda, but this is a new one on the Purina site.
I've seen most of the stuff, but I really think this is one of the most complete telling of this lovely boy's story.

I half guess that he's probably like most blue cats and doesn't much care for other cats, but that's just me, burned now by 2 blue cats...

Oh, he's so cute!
I confess I was leery of going there, because most animal deformities gross me out or make me cry (like the cat with 2 noses you told me about), but this little guy's a total charmer--& a loud purrer, too! You know how I enjoy that! :o)

Well, you know how squeamish I become, at times. Seriously, my mind just screeched to a halt when you first told me about it, & I was busily instructing my imagination to SHUT UP 'cause I really didn't like the pictures it was giving me!

I love him! He's adorable.
All this time, I thought he was living in the UK - but it was just that the first news reports of him came from the UK.
I had a Blue - in fact, I had two - and they got along with all of my other cats except for Chloe who isn't thrilled about any cat anywhere. Shady loved kittens and humans. Her daughter Shadow was a bit more aloof, but she got along with other cats. They each had litters and had all little Russian Blues (seven total) and shared mothering duties since the kits were born days apart.
Chloe, on the other hand, is a muted or dilute Calico and does not like other cats around. She tolerates them for the most part, but if Tiki and Baby Cat are playing, Chloe's ire gets up and she'll chase Tiki and start a fight to put a stop to their shenanigans. Once she's satisfied that they are no longer having fun, she goes back and settles down. She's a miserable old lady these days!!

actually, they could be British blues or the french blue cat with the funny name, they get on better with other cats than the Russian's do...
Torties, all of them I've ever had, both dilute and non, have not been fond of other cats... Gabby, the younger of the 2 non-dilute torties is about the friendliest.
Prissy is dilute and she's got her moods. Some days she's cuddling with Daisy, the baby, and other days she's just nasty. And Taillight, who is just a brown tabby, is about the same way, some days are better than others.
I'm thinking those two might settle a bit after they are finally fixed - I hope!!!

Shadow looked just like the Blue on the right except she had the gold eyes. Shady was built more like a British, but didn't have the right color eyes, nor did she have those emerald green eyes. We figured she was a mix, but the British showed more. She was a bit stockier than Shadow and had that thickish fur while Shadow was more oriental in build - yet, otherwise, their markings were identical. Shady was also a smaller size than they say the Brits are. Shadow was more lithe than Shady was - more agile. We'd been told they were mother and daughter.

I have never heard of him before now. He is soo cute! Some deformities in animals just make me sad or sick, but his just makes him special!
I have never had any experiences with blues.

Hi Elic,
A really cute cat. He seems pretty laid back for his fame. Reminds me of my, Bandit, who had double paws. She was a real, relaxed, lump of love of a cat. She would dive for under the couch when anyone not immediate family came to visit and would stay there until they left. Didn't like social occasions : )

I love Yoda he’s a gorgeous boy! I have seen stories and photos of him, quite remarkable isn’t he? He seems like a well adjusted and happy cat despite his four ears. The video tells the story so nicely and Yoda sure looks as though he is very well loved.
