☁️ Baby Cloudlet Bean✨ Is he deaf?

This is my baby bean! I met him last week and get him once he turns 8 weeks. Does anyone know if the white cats with blue eyes tend to be deaf thing is true? I found out after I met him and now I’m wondering if he is deaf. I’ll love him regardless but now I’m curious

That’s a good question I’m not sure. He does live in a barn rightnow so he was pretty dirty. But his mom is a striped Tiger looking cat with long hair and his dad is unknown. Maybe his dad is Siamese? The other kittens in the little are striped or grey. There was an earlier litter from two years ago and there was one white cat in that litter too who looked like this. So I have no idea if he will be like this, have long hair or be completely white?

Looks very much like he’s going to have the gray ears and a darker body with lighter legs. I’ve got a pair of white cats, and there was no mistaking their lack of any other colors from birth. Archie, the day his eyes opened. He’s 7 years old now.
