Nice kitty

Cat goes green.. Nice!

From The Star:

Locals, who first spotted the feline in Bulgarian seaside town of Varna, had initially assumed that the cat was abused by vandals who had painted him green.

They even set up a Facebook group to catch the perpetrators.

However, it seems that the feline was sleeping on top of an abandoned pile of synthetic green paint in a garage.

It is believed that the paint gradually covered the entire cat, giving him unusually vibrant appearance.

It also seems that the colour is not coming off any time soon as each nap he takes just makes the colour stronger.

Based on reports, it is unclear to whether the green feline belongs to anyone or it is just another stray cat roaming the streets of Varna.

RON95 and diesel prices to be determined by float system from Dec 1

The Star reported that come December 1, the retail price for RON95 petrol and diesel will be fixed on a managed float, effectively marking the removal of all fuel subsidies.

Under the managed float, similar to that now used for RON97, retail prices would be based on the monthly average world price of crude oil.

The current price of RON95 is RM2.30 per litre while the price of diesel is RM2.20.

The price of RON97 dropped by 20 sen on Tuesday to RM2.55 a litre due to the drop in world oil prices.
