Ocelot II

16. They aren't Russian Blues - coat texture and eye colors are wrong, and they are quite large.

RBs are medium-sized and have "bright green eyes, pinkish lavender or mauve paw pads, two layers of short thick fur in a solid blue-grey colour with a silver sheen." These guys are darker gray, their fur is sleek more than plush and without the silver sheen, paw pads are black, eyes are bright yellow on one, yellow with a more chartreuse cast on the other. They're just regular cats, but that's fine. I love them already!
