The Green Cat of Bulgaria

He's become a familiar sight in the Bulgarian town of Varna. At first people thought some kids must have painted him green as a cruel prank. But upon further investigation, it's been discovered that the cat sleeps on top of a pile of discarded green paint in a garage. [independent.co.uk]

I've been there but didn't see any (or many for that matter) green cat!

This could be the subject of an Ogden Nash poem:

The trouble with a kitten is that,
eventually it becomes a green cat.

Although the meter doesn't quite fit...

I make it an absolute rule of life to avoid all green pussies.

There once was a cat who was green
Who was so jealous it was obscene
of the cat who was orange
who ruined the rhyme
of what was a perfectly good limerick

Its a pretty kitty but looks sad. Rob K that is a sound policy!

The internet may have made me cynical, but I expect that that's a normal coloured cat with some photoshoppery.
