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

Start point:	Wendy, north of the Wizards' Tower.
Members only:	Yes, but a free player can attempt it. However, once they reach the chest containing the Magic unguent, Lottie will tell you to collect the unguent on a members world. Previously, the unguent could be taken to Wendy, but there would be no cats for the player to dye purple because they are members-only.
Official difficulty:
Description:	None
Length:	Short
Requirements:	Gertrude's Cat, Swept Away
Items required:	A Cat
Enemies to defeat:	None

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!

The map of Betty's basement.

Start by talking to Wendy just North of the Wizard's Tower.
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.

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.
