glow in the dark kitty!

so my cat got fixed in august, just before we moved into a new apartment.
hes been gaining weight like mad, and last night i was laying in bed when he comes up for his nightly cuddles... i start petting him really fast(he looooves it)


i start noticing little specs of light on him as i do it... my kitty builds up static electricity really easy, and as i scratch him hes turning into a light show of all the little bolts of static discharging! its sooo cool lol... he doesnt seem to notice or mind it either lol

that's too funny! Seb is a static kitty, too but he notices. Looks at me like I'm gonna frankenstein him

And here I thought you were talking about the Korean cloned cats that actually *do* glow in the dark, LOL!

You mean like the glow in the dark mice with the gene from the squid or something that makes their skin glow? Did they do that with cats too?

Sort of. It's a fluorescent protein that has a side effect which causes the cloned cats to glow in the dark with UV lighting:
