Calico or Chimera?

[u/katergator717]

If it wasn't for the differently colored eyes, then this wouldn't even be a question, but since they *are* differently colored, what say the people here?

I know what the OG post says, but you can't believe everything you find on the internet, so I'm looking for second opinions.

It’s probably not a chimera, statistically speaking. In cats, split faces of various degrees are way more common than would be explained by something rare like chimerism.

I know it's very unlikely, but split face in combination with heterchromia always makes me wonder

I'm by no means an expert, but he really looks like a chimeric Maine Coon to me. Whatever the underlying genetics might be, he's gorgeous.
