Finally a case where the “side effect” or bug is ACTUALLY a FEATURE! Now the real question. Where can i buy one????
If you have to shine an UV light, then its not really “glowing in the dark”, is it?
Still cool though, like having a Pink Floyd poster that can run around.
It lights up like semen on CSI!

They’ve been making mice fluorescent green for years using DNA from Jellyfish.

Now only they can make them transform.
I love the ghostly cat look… Where can I get one?!?
