** Blue Eyes is the most adorable kitten ever when he is small, and he's very loving and very affectionate. He shares his food with an alley cat without home and tries to be polite to other tom-cats he meets. When he meets other animals, he tries to befriend them if possible.
** Kiki is a cute lil' ball of fur when they get her and very sweet. She enjoys the priviledge of being cuter than a now-grown-up Blue Eyes but really likes him and has a good heart too.

''Tomcat Blue-Eyes’ Diaries'' (original Czech title ''Z deníku kocoura Modroočka'') is a a classic of Czech children's literature.
Blue Eyes is a little inexperienced Siamese tomcat with big blue eyes who decides to keep a diary and tell his readers what has happened to him since he was born, and continues writing about his adventures. Readers find out about his first days with his big two-legged creature (to whom he later refers as "my human" because cats don't have masters), about meeting other cats in his town neighbourhood like she-cat Green Eyes or gorgeous tomcat White Whiskers Rusty, about his adventures in the countryside cottage, about his encounters with various animals, and much more.
Written in 1965 by Josef Kolář, a biologist, teacher and radio journalist who wrote programmes mainly for children and youth. According to Kolář, the book was based on his real cat and his adventures. The book was illustrated by Helena Zmatlíková whose cute and charming pictures are a staple of Czech literature aimed at children.
It was adapted many times to various media: a radio broadcast, a puppet movie, live-action TV movie, several theatre performances, several audio books read by well-known actors, and an audio book narrated and sung by several actors and singers. Especially the last one was a huge hit when it was released, but none of the adaptations is so well-loved as the original book.

!!Tropes:
* BabiesEverAfter: The book ends with Kiki and Blue Eyes having four cat babies.
* BerserkButton: Green Eyes is a kind-hearted cat, but when Blue Eyes insults her kittens (he says they are real ugly and even blind!), she swats his face twice and runs away with her kittens and grows distant towards Blue Eyes.
* BigBrotherMentor:
** White Whiskers Rusty is an older tomcat who takes Blue Eyes under his wings and teaches him about the world and local cat society. Blue Eyes listens to him, adores him and generally is glad that he has so great a friend.
** Blue Eyes takes the mentoring role when he takes care of Kiki the kitten.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Blue Eyes saves Kiki from Yellow. She spoiled his chicken-stealing and he wanted to punish her for it. The fight between Blue Eyes and Yellow was extremely tough and Blue Eyes notes that it was his first real fight that might very well have been his last one as well.
* CatConcerto: The cats from the neighbourhood regularly meet for concertos on one big roof. Green Eyes is their choir leader and is very strict on tom-cats who sing out of tune. Blue Eyes' first concert is ended by some uncultured human who threw a broom among them. Other times Blue Eyes sings alone in the wood.
* CatUpATree: From the cat's point of view. Blue Eyes was chasing a squirrel and was having great fun, until he got too high and was afraid to climb down. He was mewing very desperately and naturally his human came to his rescue. He was trying to get him down, but finally had to go for him, but fell down when the lean bough broke. The human got injured very badly and desperate Blue Eyes could climb down rather easily after all. The human was taken to hospital and Blue Eyes was left alone, crying sadly the whole time. At the end of the chapter, the human is brought back home and Blue Eyes cuddles with him in his bed. Blue Eyes decides to never ever chase squirrels again.
* CatsAreSuperior: Blue Eyes is horrified when he meets a dog who belongs to his human's friend. He cannot understand how the dog can be so submissive and so satisfied taking orders. Eventually they become somewhat friendly but still, he's not Blue Eyes favourite animal.
* CatsHateWater: Blue Eyes certainly does. One night he falls into a pond and nearly drowns, but finally figeres out how to swim and saves himself. Once he overcomes his natural aversion to water when he needs to show his human that he can swim too, not only Kiki.
* CoolCat: Most of the cats in the story are graceful.
** White Whiskers is very experienced and elegant cat.
** Blue Eyes when he gets a bit older tries to be cool and doesn't much like when his human laughs at him.
** Mici Angorra is very proud, haughty and arrogant because he "played in a movie".
* CuteKitten: Kiki, a grey blue-eyed Siamese cat. She's a small kitten who got lost, and Blue Eyes and his human saved her from some evil kids. When they found out she has no home, they decided to adopt her. Blue Eyes was quite surprised that Kiki was allowed to do stuff he was forbidden, but figured out it was because she was still little and such a cutie. He was sorry about it, but once he found out his, or rather their, human loved them both, he was satisfied.
* DudeMagnet:
** Green Eyes is the only she-cat in the neighbourhood, so all the tomcats are crazy about her.
** Kiki once she grows up. When Blue Eyes and she arrive home, the tomcats take a liking to her. Green Eyes is naturally jealous and hostile towards her.
* HoldYourHippogriffs: Czech proverb "measure twice, cut once" is changed to "measure twice, pass through once". It is White Whiskers' advice to Blue Eyes when he got stuck in a fence.
* InnocentBlueEyes: Blue Eyes has big bright blue eyes. The story starts when he's just a bigger kitten starting to discover the world, and he's inexperienced and not always very sharp in understanding. He's extremely sweet and kind-hearted to other cats, especially to homeless cat Green Eyes or to White Whiskers Rusty who become his mentors.
* KindHeartedCatLover: Blue Eyes' human. He appears to have no family, just Blue Eyes, and he's very loving towards him. The cutest moments happen when he holds him or lets him purr into his ears.
* JerkAss: Yellow tomcat who Blue Eyes meets near his cottage is very mean and immediately wants to fight with Blue Eyes. The latter tries to be polite and eventually dicides to hold a respectable distance from the Yellow one.
* ProudBeauty: Like most cats, Blue Eyes is well aware of the fact that he's really adorable and really good-looking. When White Whisters scolds him for getting stuck in a fence, he asks him whether he knows what the purpose of cat's whiskers is. Blue Eyes answers: "To look beautiful of course!"
* SickEpisode: Blue Eyes eats "ew stuff" in chapter four and gets very ill. He's taken to the vet, but always spits his medicine. His human is really sad and Blue Eyes decides to die. Eventually he's so sick that he doesn't care what happens to him and lets the human put the pill in his throat. He figures it doesn't taste so bad, and after a time gets well.
* WhatBeautifulEyes: Blue Eyes admires a horse's eyes though he notes that they are extremely sad. He finds out why -- horses must serve humans and their work is unspeakably tough. He tries to set the horse free, with disastrous results for him. The horse's master strikes Blue Eyes with a whips.
