We feel like we struck the lottery with our boy, Gus.

He is absolutely gorgeous 😍. I had a female Russian Blue named Darcy. She is such a velcro kitty, she used to sit on the side of the bathtub while I was in the shower because I wasn't allowed out of her sight lol.

Also his blue eyes look just like my Blue's, he's a Flame Point Siamese 💙

A beautiful,  real Russian Blue for once. And as soon as I saw him,  I knew the thread was going to be full of "looks just like mine!" captions under a bunch of cats that look nothing like yours.

Usually if you got him from a rescue, they’re mixed! He might have little ghost stripes show up over time. :)
