In an experiment with the goal of protecting humans and cats from AIDS and FIV, scientists also created glow in the dark cats. The effect is from a florescent protein found in jellyfish, and a version of this gene along with another that blocks FIV are expressed in the cat's lymphoid organs. Some of the cats involved were orange and would glow green, this pin does the same.
