They call me Mellow Yellow...

They seem to have gone out of their way not to investigate this in people.

Didn't Florescent Cats tour with Baha Men?

Glow, little glow worm cat.

They didn't say what wavelength of UV light, so who knows.

Anyway, people's skin and teeth fluoresce under UV light, so there's that.

What a new way to find those pesky fur balls that hide around the room and in behind furniture. Just get out your UV light, turn out the room lights, and get hunting.

Human females also do this. I know because when I was a kid, I overheard my cousin tell my sister, "Girls don't sweat, they glow."
