This story reminds me of the time I dyed my roommates long haired white cat a beautiful blue for April Fools Day. I used paste food coloring on a fine tooth comb to do it. The kitty thought she was just being pampered. My roommate thought it was hilarious. She tinted my cat, (white with gray spots) a nice green while I slept that night. I still remember people's faces when they met our kitties. I don't decorate cake anymore so no more colorful cats, although my sister just adopted a long haired white dog......I have to run to the store......
