This Stray Cat Accidentally Turned Itself Green
399Kviews
That’s not Photoshop – that’s a real-life green cat that has been stalking the streets of Varna, Bulgaria. Residents stumped by its bizarre color were led on a hunt to find out the secret of its unnatural coloration.
The first suspicion was that someone had played a cruel joke on the cat by painting it green. Residents had even formed a Facebook group to coordinate their search for the culprits. The truth, however, was somewhat less nefarious – it was discovered that the cat had taken a liking to sleeping in a pile of powdered green paint at a local garage.
So far, efforts to capture the cat and clean it or inspect it for health issues have been unsuccessful. However, neither the cat nor its friends seem very bothered by its peculiar coat!

There’s a mysterious green cat roaming the streets of Varna, Bulgaria
At first, concerned residents thought the stray had been the target of a malicious prank
A Facebook group was formed to search for the culprit
The truth turned out to be a bit less sinister, however…
The cat had been sleeping on a bag of powdered green paint at a local garage!
The cat seems not to mind the color, and neither does her friend
The paint may have left negative side-effects, but no one’s been able to catch the cat to check

Somebody should really rescue this cat. He/she is keeping her tongue outside his/her mouth that means there are some health issue.
I concur: Cats are meticulous, self-grooming often: This poor soul is ingesting toxic paint products & may die if someone doesn't intervene!
Some cats have strange bites and their tongues can stick out naturally. It could also be the cat is sick...hard to rell if it's not caught.
Could it be the cat is stressed by having someone with a camera following it around?
my cat always has his tongue out of his mouth. what's the Problem? we check him yearly -> healthy. maybe it's just an age appearance
Hello? He could be licking his fur with his tongue...that is the concern....that he could be consuming toxic paint!
You mean "capture the cat" :))
They said they have tried to catch it but can't
They obv havnt tried hard enough to catch kitty.... seriously , Lions can be captured people!
should have hired Arya or that.
Seriously.. "Tried"? It's really not that difficult to catch even those most rambunctious of cats.
She could be named Jade.

Please look after the green cat. She needs care or else will poison herself with the paint on her fur. If only we live in the same country.
Yes, this cat needs to be rescued for a thorough check up.
Someone please catch it and take it to a vet. The chemicals in the paint will probably kill it otherwise.
Why doesn't someone remove the bag of green paint?? Simples! X
That's the best comment I've read! Remove the paint AND get the cat to a vet ASAP.
They have tried to catch it but can't seem to lol Didn't you guys even read the post?
She is utterly gorgeous! I adore her coloring, and truly hope it doesn't cause her any harm.
Poor cat :(
I would like to be a stray person in bulgaria. That cat looks healthy
We met a pink cat in Mexico that had been dyed by the terra cotta tiles.
the coat is very well groomed but its health, not so much.
cool
wow
Wow its so green it looks photoshopped :0
it was sent from the future
Kitty!!
This poor cat needs to be trapped and have it's health checked. A lot of paints are toxic to kitties. If he's trapped, he should be shaved.
If it wasn't potentially toxic, it'd be funny..."The Boy With Green Hair" as "The Cat With Green Fur." Anyhow, aren't cats colorblind?
good
My dog tipped over a can of antique blue paint and walked in it all over our house, which looked like an episode of Blue's Clues.
Just feed it till it trusts you It worked for me and a one eyed persian . I called him Blinky Oh and catnip helps to bercome friends
Don't they have small animal traps in Bulgaria? Can order online. There are YouTube videos on humane cat trapping for neuter & vet care.
This cute cat scene but I think he needs help from a veterinarian
That cat has some serious sense of fashion
FAKE! It's photoshopped...Look carefully...
es verde!
Let Me Guess: Roaming around the sewers and found some green ooze coming out of a shiny chrome container, 4 turtles and a rat near by?
“(...) if the paint is having negative health consequences (...)” Really? The poor thing has his tongue out ! Ingesting paint is not safe...
I do think the same than most of the people here in the thread, that cat must be catch and taken to the vet.
To Laura: I think, this "green"cat looks healthy, maybe she will have some flies, but to show sometimes a little tip of the tongue is okay!
there's so much help I can do but they only allow me a 140 words.I have 10 rescue.all fearl and had medical problems.there healthy.and loved
Poor cat! :(
This is hilarious, love it !
Ok, if they can't catch the cat, can they at least remove the bag of powered paint & check the ingredients for toxins?
I hope it doesn't get any sort of paint poisoning...
He's intelligent. That color makes him less likely to be stomped by a car while crossign the street. Hope he dosen't get sick though.
poor kitten
PShero catch her!!
Think of all the spin offs - The Green Cat Coffee Shop, a spy thriller 'The Elusive Green Cat', 'Batman & The Green Cat' movie, etc...
yeah and the paint just happened to cover the WHOLE CAT yeahhh sure it did....hmmmmm
hmmm and the paint just happened to cover the WHOLE cat..yeah ok

I'm thinking both cats look a little too clean and healthy to be strays in that wet and muddy environment shown in the video. :)
I think both cats look just a might too cared for to really be strays. Someone looking for 15 min. of fame? lol
In cat's world, to be green seems not enough to be awesome! Color is'nt discriminating there
Do not und WHY its not possible to catch him ???? its a cat and not a ghost!!! someone must help him !!!
I don't buy it. It's too perfect, especially around the cats face. If it was sleeping in it, it wouldn't be so perfectly even, IMHO
The cat seems to be OK, but hopefully someone can trap it and make sure it's OK, and please remove the powdered paint.
poor kitty :(
reminds me of a movie the boy with green hair.
I thought it may have fallen into a porta John- isn't that blue juice in there...
They should test the paint if they cannot catch the cat......for goodness sake.
I I had a kitty id dye it green
i think someone done this on purpose it is way to even every were
According to LiveLeak, locals have taken it upon themselves to ensure that the cat gets checked out by a veterinarian to ensure that the pai
Cute, but I don't like the discharge around the eyes, and remember cats clean by licking - ingestion of paint is likely.

How hard can it be to catch it. You shoot it, you grab it, and you check it for health issues.
SAVE HER FOR CRAP SAKE!! WHILE YOU WERE FILMING HER YOU COULD HAD HER IN A CAGE ON THE WAY TO A VET!!! Let me guess, you had no cage?
The cat should contact Kermit, he will help the cat get through this Trauma, It's not easy been green.
How doen she sleep? The paint is insiders the ear. I don't believ this store.
I bet that cat is all the envy on St. Patrick's Day!
Ładna para - rudy z zielonym!
Poor kitty! Cats lick themselves to keep clean. She has probably infested toxic chemicals from the paint and needs treated by a vet
Make the garage owner put the stuff in sealed containers, and clean up the floor or ground. Pass laws to make him obey. Or shut him down.
Paint, or rat poison, both are killers. Death by poisoning is very painful. Other cats will be affected as they groom each other.

Make the garage owner-operator buy sealed containers for the paint, clean up the ground; or shut him down, out of business. Pass new laws!!!
Dunno - the colour looks a bit too 'regular' to me. Look at her face - did she bury herself in paint? I still suspect human involvement.

Poisoning by paint or otherwise is a painful death. Prevent suffering. Don't be part of the sick thinking that's it's funny.
That green is also the color used in rat poison.
NOT FUNNY, OR CUTE. Paint is toxic, will ingest by licking, other cats will lick, too. Store paint SAFELY away from cats,
NOT FUNNY OR CUTE, but TOXIC, esp. cats.Licking causes ingestion, other cats will lick & be affected. STORE PAINT PROPERLY, AWAY FROM CATS!
Someone entice this beauty with food, kindness and rescue it. Yes Thor, RESCUE
Laying in powdered paint???? Entice this creature with some food and kindness and rescue it! Yes Thor RESCUE!
Meowwwwww
Kringer like He man s tiger
Reading Green Eggs and Ham again I see.
Of they can, they should check it out asap and at least remove the bad of powdered paint.
Poor cat. If its like mine who grooms/Licks herself for minutes/ hours a day/ week she will be consuming this... got to be bad for her :-(
Aww you little green latern!!
Seems like an awfully even color to be an accident... Just saying.
Rescue the cat. Dangerous as cats groom themselves. Contain the paint. Interfering with its habits one needs to find a safe home for it.
the cat has it's mouth open in almost every picture... that is NOT normal.
no one could catch the cat to check if it's sick or not cz they're too busy taking videos and pictures of it -_-
is it really that hard to trap a cat ?
yes, in my experience it has been. :(
:(
:(
SOS!!!!
It's a girl... poor kitty. they might not find the cat but i hope they have removed the freaking paint...
I'm really hoping that someone or a group would take the cat to a vet so it'll be checked and be cleaned off of that paint. :(

It would suggest they found the source of the colour. I wish they would have told us if the paint was toxic to cats?
This is awful. Has anyone cleaned up the paint on this poor kitty's pallet?

I think this should be translated to English!
He said that if the paint hasn't affected the cat after she has licked herself, it's probably not a problem.
I'd totally adopt him if I was on the right continent!?
Aren't there any street/homeless animals in your continent? Seriously, this one seems OK - haves some shelter and does not look starving.
