Purple cat (miniquest)


 * This article is about the "Purple cat" miniquest. For the pet, please see Purple cat.

The Purple Cat miniquest is unlocked after the completion of the Swept Away quest, and was released during the 2008 Hallowe'en event.

Details
Note: From release until an update on 24 June 2010, Wendy was located east of the Crafting Guild.

WARNING: If you bring your Hellcat of any kind to become dyed, '''it will be reverted to a normal cat. TAKE CAUTION!'''

Starting off

 * Start by talking to Wendy, just west of the Draynor Village lodestone.
 * Ask Wendy about purple cats. She will tell you to bring her a Cat and some magic unguent. She says you can get it from Lottie, Wendy's best friend, who is working with Betty in Port Sarim. Lottie is in Betty's Magic Emporium basement.
 * Talk to Lottie. She will tell you the unguent is in the same chest from the Swept Away quest, but Betty has strengthened security (last time you did it, she became paranoid) and you must move all 6 animals at least once this time.
 * Lottie will give you the magic slate again to view your progress during the miniquest.

The puzzle (Take two)

 * This is essentially a smaller puzzle box, see the Treasure Trail Puzzle box guide, and can be solved using the same methods. By solving one of the vertical columns the rest is no different than the first puzzle.
 * There is currently a glitch which allows the puzzle to be solved by using Surge or Escape to force skip the dialogue preventing you from bringing an animal into a room which already contains an animal.

Finishing up

 * Once the puzzle has been solved, open the chest to obtain a vial of Magic unguent.
 * Take this back to Wendy, along with a cat, to dye your cat purple. (Note: if you don't want to turn a cat purple, just bring the unguent without the cat. Wendy will take the unguent, and you will receive the rewards.)

Congratulations, miniquest complete!
