:''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 ==
{{Quest details
|start = [[Wendy]], north of the [[Wizards' Tower]].
|length = Short
|members = Yes, but a [[free play]]er 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.
|requirements = [[Gertrude's Cat]], [[Swept Away]]
|items = A [[Cat]]
}}

Note: From release until [[Update:Free-to-play Quest Changes|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!'''''

==Walkthrough==
[[File:Betty's Basement.png|frame|right|The map of Betty's basement.]]

===Starting off===
* Start by talking to [[Wendy]] just North of the [[Wizard's Tower]].
* Ask Wendy about [[purple cat]]s. 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.

===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.

'''Congratulations, miniquest complete!'''

==Reward==
* [[Magic unguent]] [[File:Magic unguent.png|Vial of purple magic unguent.]]
* The ability to turn a [[cat]]'s colour purple. [[File:Purple cat.png|A purple cat seen following a player.|50px]]
* Talk to Wendy after this to turn your cat purple any time and as many times as you want!
