| Are we talking "green" like a tree, or "green" like a cat called "red"?
Maybe this cat is part plant!

| On my TV, which isn't the greatest anyway, the kitty looked a
green/brown. But, definately *not* "mostly" brown; the green
was obvious.
He was cute ... like all kittens :-)

From Today's Boston Globe;
Green kitten puzzles Danes - Copenhagen, Denmark
Something's green in Denmark. It's a kitten, much to the puzzlement of
vets who have tried to wash out the cat's grass-green tint. Experts
from the university hospital said the color also appears in the hair
follicles. It could be a metabolism defect. The 2 month old kitten is
all green except for a gray spot on the back. Samples of the kitten's
hair follicles have been sent to Copenhagen's university hospital for
testing.

| He looks brown with a distinct greenish cast. Permanent hair-coloring
wouldn't wash out... cynicism lives :-)

| Saw this on a local news station here in Washington, DC. It was hard to
tell the exact color, but there was definately a green tinge to the
brown fur. I don't remember the specifics, but they did mention that
neither of the parents are green - so I would assume from that they
know who the parents are....
It was a very cute kitten, but aren't they all?

| I saw this on a couple of the stations. I was at my vet's on Saturday
and the receptionist asked me if I had heard about it. I said that I
had, and I remembered as a kid hearing about somwthing similar in cows,
although I didn't remember the details. My vet overheard the conversation
and said that he was thinking the same thing. He said that when there
is cobalt in the land that cows are grazing in (or if thier hay was
grown in a pasture with rich cobalt deposits), the cow's coat can get a
greeish blue tinge to it.
