it wasn't until about 10 years ago that I found out the cat I own was a pure breed Turkish van cat. I found mine in my neighborhood when he was just barely four weeks old and he was extremely sick and emaciated and I tried to find the owner and I couldn't. There was a home for sale where I found him in front of but there was nobody there I don't know if the owners died or what. So I took him home and apparently he had a botfly to the chest and he was a pure white cat with blue eyes and it was until he got older that is Van jeans came out with the brown Splash to the Head the spot on the shoulder and the brown tail he's got a soft undercoat that's very different from the rest of his body and he swims and likes water. I was extraordinary really grateful to find out that God blessed me with such a great cat. He's 13 years old now he's extraordinarily healthy he still acts like a kitten and he is just absolutely gorgeous. I would really love to know where he came from if God did not just put him there in my path. I found him in the middle of the road sick and injured and emaciated and I thought he was dead.

Turkish Van cats only have 1 layer of coat. If your cat has 2 layers (because you mention the undercoat), it's most likely a Turkish Angora.

I have one of your beautiful cats. Everything you have said about this gorgeous breed is absolutely true. They are very intelligent, and love investigating anything in their home. Devoted to their families, they are always ready to interact with any activity. They do require combing and grooming on a regular basis. April thru September are heavy shedding months and require daily combing. This is not difficult, as the silkiness of their fur makes it easy to comb in a few minutes. Getting them used to this at an early age helps them to get used to and enjoy it.

I had cats all my life and all from the people that had kittens they needed to re-home. I adopted a 12 y.o. adult cat from a friend because she had developed allergies to her and her Dr. asked her to find a new home. I knew my friend's cat already and was about to lose my tuxedo cat to cancer. So I re-homed her cat. I researched her because I thought she may be a special breed. I found out she was a Van-alike. cat. Her name was Kissy. She was mostly white (the piebald gene) and had 2 black markings between the ears (caps). Kissy had 2 eyes of the same color, yellow-green. Kissy was THE MOST remarkable pet I have ever had. She was sooo in tune with me and followed me around like a dog. She was so lovable. I lost her just short of age 21. That was in June 2011. I was so devastated from her loss that I have not replaced her. If I ever do, it will only be a Turkish Van cat. I'm Godsmacked by that breed. ❤😻💗

I had a Turkish Van crossbreed because it had a black and brown tail and ears and yellow eyes. It lived with us for 18 years and is sorely missed. It was the most gentle well behaved and fun-loving cat ever. It loved the water and took walks with us too. I will never forget him.

If these cats are all white with "odd" eyes, they are hybridized. Vans were white cats with colored tails and color around the head and face. Usually red or black but sometimes both and they are called "torties".
