Probably not, Les. I haf reared two cats of the same sp. before n they were coloured much like urs even when they were in their 1st instar, which is only a few mm in length as compared to 12 cm in the latest instar(moths seem to haf more instars ). This cat was orange from the start. Btw, r those dropppings hanging from the cat's behind?
