Damn, toner is running out
Aw man, I was hoping for green or blue
When they didn’t find the KIT gene to be causing the whiteness, the scientists turned to something more dramatic: sequencing the salmiak cats’ entire genome
OMG you can’t just ask a cat why it’s white!
Also pretty neat that the gene responsible for cat colouring is called KIT, science proves we named kitties correctly.

Me side-eyeing the Sonic hedgehog protein that “regulates the embryonic morphogenesis in all animals”. 😒
This new cat color was detected around 5 megaparsecs distance from the Milky Way, in the general direction of the Leo constellation, using the Very Large Cat Ear Antenna Array at the 21 cm wavelength of the microwave part of the spectrum.
Only matter of time before we get our rainbow-glitter cat.
Best news I’ve heard all year.
Damn, some months ago I came across a void for adoption that had very unusual white flecks on its body. Now I’m even more sad I didn’t adopt him 😿
