The blue eyes are even weirder, and make me lean towards calling it fake. It is quite well done though, if it is fake.
Edit: found a post, looks pretty damn real. Any insight on the blue eyes?

Huh... WTF is a Minuet?
Oh WTF???!!!
So it's a cross between two breeds that, ethically, I really don't think should even exist. I'd have to dig a bit, but I'd be shocked if there's not breeders specifically breeding both of those for blue eyes, so it sadly almost makes more sense now.
Yeah, not great. Luckily it looks like the cross turns out to have a normal muzzle at least, and I think most munchkins do okay. Pure persians and Scottish folds are the real crime in my opinion, poor Scottish folds, horrible joint problems just because humans must have slightly bent ears :(
