    Feral Russian Blue?

    We have a new feral eating here that appears to be Russian Blue but eyes appear more yellow than blue. Not very vocal at all and skittish enough till it will be a long term project. Could it be purebred with yellow eyes? If so I might be able to get it to adopted out easier if it comes around.
