The cats have hair strands that start out black and become white the further they grow from the follicle.
Previously, cats were thought to come in just two colors: black and orange. Other colors are a combination of those; a faded version of one of those, caused by the dilution gene; or both.
Science rocks (I mean, if you believe in that stuff). A new cat color has been discovered called salmiak, or ‘salty liquorice,’ from the Finnish for where it was discovered.

I talked with Jose Andres this morning at DCA and thanked him for his work with World Central Kitchen, whose teams are feeding people in Ukraine, Gaza, LA and around the globe. He threw me a kiss. He was traveling solo without an entourage, just as you would expect.
