Two colourful moths

[atronox]

Just a suggestion, but could the different colouration be due to the fact the cat was about to pupate?

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?

No! I don't know what it was, but it looks disgusting. As I said, I do not think it was very well!
