The Green Cat of Bulgaria

A stray cat roaming the streets of Varna, Bulgaria, stands out against the crowd of feral felines. At first, people thought the cat was painted by vandals. But the story is that the cat regularly sleeps on a pile of discarded green paint in a garage. By licking his fur, he has spread the green all over his body. That didn’t sound quite right to me, because cats cannot lick or reach their spines well. But if you look closely, especially in the second video, http://youtu.be/I38vYIebEsk you’ll see that the cat’s spine is only lightly tinted green. It still looks like a special effect, so you have to wonder if someone is pulling a fast one. But a Bulgarian commenter says the cat, although unfriendly, is a celebrity in Varna and gets plenty of food, and has also been checked out by a veterinarian. (via Buzzfeed)
