Try not to look too deeply into this cat's eyes -- you might get lost.

Coby the Cat, with his stunning blue eyes and snowy, white coat, is one of those felines who probably knows he's gorgeous, but you can't hold it against him.

The breathtakingly beautiful cat has only been on Instagram since June 2015, and his head-turning looks have already caught the attention of over 285,000 followers.

According to his Instagram page description, he has a "bigger personality" than just being a model cat. While he's often captured wearing dapper outfits or making funny faces, but his favorite activities include "[eating] tuna, stealing covers and playing with [his] ducky in the tub."

Coby's bright blue eyes are rare for a British shorthair, which are commonly seen with copper or gray eye color.

UPDATE, Feb. 23, 2016, 8:20 a.m. EST: Coby's owner, Rebecca, told Mashable that the young cat is about to celebrate his first birthday, and she had a heartwarming first meeting. "I fell in love with his blue eyes and fluffy white coat. He fell asleep in my arms and the rest is history," his owner said.

Coby isn't a typical cat, either. On top of his normal cat routine of eating tuna, chasing feathers and sleeping on his owner's pillow, he "loves to play in the water," Rebecca said.
