Gold Eyes
Genetics play a huge role in a Maine Coon having gold eyes, but sometimes, they will end up with gold eyes even though their cat's mom or dad didn't. Gold eyes will happen in Maine Coons, which have very active melanin-producing cells in their eyes. The more active the melanocytes, the more gold they'll appear, but they can be pale gold too.
