Description Update: 3-21-2020 - I went ahead and made it easier to navigate by lableing the colors and a fact about Calicos, Torties and Red Males.

I have used and edit this thing a few times and it best works if you have access to a Eye dropper tool.
I was indeed motivated by 's eye color chart Cat Eye Colors . So, I made this to help me out with color picking.

At the top are the 3 eye color gradients: Green to Copper, Pale Green to Pale Copper, and the Blue to Aquamarine (aka, the pure bred eye colors, thus no pale version unless intended by designer). These colors can indeed vary in intensity and hue. Next to them are the: Mutation "Cornflower" and the two Albino eye colors. "Cornflower" has also been known as: Indigo and Purple. I'm not sure what causes this mutation but my guess is possibly due to breeding cats that have blue eyes (pure breeds for sure) who's DNA may carried a defect causing the mutation. But that's just a theory. 
Next are the "Base Colors of Pelts" : Black, Chocolate, Cinnamon, Red, Blue, Lilac, Fawn, and Cream. The first four are the full on colors while the other four are the dilute versions. Some eye colors are paired with certain pelts but that would hurt the flow, and that, for character design, any color could fit with any one. 
Lastly are the Torties and Torbies. The Female Sex Symbol is next to them due to them "mostly" being sex locked as Female but we all know about the male sex Torties and Calicos but they are indeed sterile (except for the really, really, really, really, really small percentage that might not be.) For the Torbies, the top two colors are to represent the stripes. As seen, the Black, Chocolate, and Cinnamon are paired with Red while the Blue, Lilac, and Fawn are paired with Cream. 

These are the "traditional" forms of the complicated cat color system. It is not 100% perfect so I suggest using other sources for a broader scope of the subject matter.

Yes, you are free to use it but don't claim it as your own. Once I find out, it will be taken down along with your copy. Trust me, I fight tooth and claw.

I love the brightness of these!! Perfect for eye dropping lol!

I Think Cornflower Blue is a Mutation sought after by breeders of the Ojos Azules, since it tends to appear on non white cats? I think it also has a Dilute form, that shows itself as a sorta pale purple color that is linked to Albino, same as the pale blue, and rare, pink!
