Researchers have found a new type of cat, "salmiac cat", that has a mutation giving its fur a gradient of grey. The resulting colour resembles that of salmiac, hence the name.

The mutation occurs in the KIT gene.

It's a spambot if you didn't know, well I suppose you could be a bot as well but hey worth the shot.

What did you think of the cat?

All of you shut the fuck up. I'm about to upload a poorly filmed video of my cat watching a video of cats as soon as I figure out how.

Does your cat have ADD? It seems to have a hard time keeping focus.

I dunno, she's a rescue and lives in an apartment. She seems to get bored of toys very easily and I have to keep buying new ones to keep her attention. I grew up in a cabin in the woods with eight outdoor cats who were allowed to slaughter the local fauna for entertainment so this is my first time with an indoor cat. I haven't really yet learned to interpret her behavior. She's mostly pretty relaxed unless she hears high pitched noises like bird chirps in video games or cat meows in videos like that one.
