Locals believed that the green feline, who was first spotted in the Bulgarian seaside town of Varna, had been attacked and painted the unusual shade by vandals, even setting up a Facebook group to catch the perpetrators.
Gradually, it is believed that the paint slowly covered the entire cat – giving him his unusually vibrant appearance.
The colour also appears to show no sign of wearing off as each nap the cat takes just makes the colour stronger.
