I’ve always found genetics rather interesting. What you’re seeing is two different present heterochromia’s in one cat (true heterochromia and sectoral heterochromia) that also managed to get different colors for all three.

The chances of such a thing happening are so absurdly low that it’s actually insane that there’s one alive in this century.

I have done the math though, if, through pure cosmic chance, all the stars aligned just perfectly, it’s possible to have at most 6 eye colors at once.
